New website aimed at attracting investors to the South East region

A NEW website, www.irelandsoutheast.com, has been launched for investors and professionals to learn more about the South East region as a place to live, work and invest. The site offers practical information and case studies of successful businesses and professionals in the region such as Innovate, Eirgen Pharma, Cartoon Saloon and Alltech.

The website takes an innovative, story-based approach in showing the benefits of the region through the people and businesses who are finding success here.

Jim Hughes, CEO and co-owner of Innovate stated: ‘Working and living in Ireland South East offers a fantastic opportunity to integrate family, work and life. It’s important that we all work together in communicating the message that there are very real opportunities to have an exciting and challenging career in Ireland South East, along with a great quality of life.’

Enniscorthy native Alan Quirke, Director of the Ireland South East Development Office which created the website explains: ‘I think there is strong familiarity about the South East as an affordable and great place to live.

‘What is less well known are the opportunities and benefits for businesses and professionals in a region with almost 600,000 people and where the key urban centres are all within close proximity of each other.

‘For businesses, we are one of the fastest growing regions in Europe, we are Ireland’s best value region and we also have a broad pool of talent. Equally importantly, we have a unique collaborative culture and we can make it easy for investors to start, grow and scale here.’
