DESPITE tough times brought about by Covid-19, IDA Ireland is still aiming for 76 investments in the region over the next few years.
As part of this, the job creation agency will construct its own advanced manufacturing centre between now and 2024, as well as upgrading its stock of business parks across the region including the National Technology Park in Plassey.
The IDA’s manager for the Mid-West region Will Corcoran, who has been in the role for just over a year, said the advanced facility will act as an attractor to bring more companies in.
