IDA Ireland has a focus on the Turkish market in seeking appropriate investments and while IDA Ireland has engaged with Turkish companies with a view to establishing international operations in Ireland over the period in question, the number is commercially sensitive information.

More broadly, IDA Ireland has offices in 25 overseas locations, covering 55 countries, and continuously reviews its strategic approach to winning investment for Ireland. The IDA presents prospective investors with value propositions tailored to meet their particular strategic challenges and needs, partnering with potential and existing clients to help them to grow or expand their international operations in Ireland. In this regard, the Turkish market is served by the IDA Asia Pacific team.
