206. Deputy Pauline Tully asked the Minister for Finance if he met with a person (details supplied) during his recent visit to the World Economic Forum in Davos. [3575/24]
View answerDuring my engagements at the World Economic Forum in Davos, I had a wide range of political and business-related meetings, as well as a number of interviews with international media, and I participated in a number of discussion panels organised by the Forum. I can confirm to the Deputy that I did not have a bilateral meeting with any representatives of Amazon while in Davos.
I did, however, meet with representatives of Amazon MGM Studios earlier this month during my visit to the U.S. West Coast. Amazon MGM Studios is a subsidiary of the wider Amazon group. The core purpose of that visit was to promote two-way trade and investment between Ireland and the US West Coast, and to meet with a number of companies that have a long-standing and significant presence in Ireland.
