The Action Plan for Jobs 2014 has set a job creation target for IDA Ireland of 13,000 new jobs for the year. One of the three new Disruptive Reforms introduced in the Action Plan for Jobs 2014 is the “Winning Abroad” initiative to be delivered by IDA Ireland. The key objective of the initiative is to deliver an additional 10,000 jobs (6,000 direct and 4,000 indirect) in a five year period, over and above the existing targets in set out in the Action Plan. Government has provided additional funding to IDA Ireland to enable the Agency to engage additional staff in overseas locations to capitalise on opportunities for Ireland to win additional and new forms of FDI.
To date in 2014 there have been 17 IDA announcements with the potential to create over 6,800 jobs.
