Regional development is a key focus of our Programme for Government and is central to the work of my Department and our enterprise development agencies. In that regard, IDA Ireland partners with client companies and key stakeholders in all regions in pursuit of its objective to maximise regional opportunities.
Under its current strategy, “Adapt Intelligently: A Strategy for Sustainable Growth and Innovation 2025-29” IDA Ireland is targeting 1,000 investments, with 55% (550) in regional locations. This ambitious target reflects IDA Ireland’s ongoing commitment to support transformation and growth across all regions. In this regard, IDA is targeting 100 investments to the Mid-West region, which includes Tipperary - up from 76 under its previous strategy, 2021–2024, when 95 investments were won.
There are currently 153 IDA-supported companies in the Mid-West, directly employing 27,698 people and 17 of these are in Tipperary, employing 5,589 people, although I am fully aware that one company has recently announced closure plans. Overall, the FDI performance in the region has been strong over the past five years with employment among IDA clients increasing by 16%. The Mid-West has a significant ecosystem of well-established companies across Technology, Life Sciences, International Financial Services and Engineering & Industrial Technologies.
