Ireland ranks among the Top Ten Tech Hot Spots for start-ups

If you’re a tech entrepreneur starting up here in Ireland then you can rest assured you’re in good hands…

That’s because Ireland has been named one of the top ten hot spots for tech start-ups.

According to SiliconIrelandNewswire.com: “It may not be the largest European capital, but Dublin when it comes to attracting global startup interest the city punches well above its weight; 140 overseas businesses either took up home or expanded in Ireland in 2012, according to Ireland’s Industrial Development Authority (IDA) data.

“Much of the credit for Dublin’s status as an eminent tech hub goes to Enterprise Ireland, a government-sponsored organisation with one of the largest venture funds in Europe, and remarkably good access to seed investment, including funding that is available from a growing number of accelerators, such as Launchpad.”

It’s great news for Ireland as a whole and for budding entrepreneurs hoping to start-up a new tech company. We’re sure just one of the many reasons Ireland is so highly regarded in the start up community is due to the fact that there’s always someone willing to help you with any business related question, big or small.

Needless to say, the folks over at Enterprise Ireland were pleased with the good news.
