Foreign direct investment: Ireland’s 50 year overnight success story

“The level of investment in Ireland by US companies is phenomenal – more capital invested in Ireland since 1990 ($189bn) than Brazil, Russia, India and China combined. Approximately one-quarter of Ireland’s GDP is from US companies. There is nowhere else in the world (outside the US of course) where there are more US multinationals and emerging companies.   Tech giants Google (Google recently celebrated ten years in Dublin) and Facebook have their international headquarters in Dublin, along with LinkedIn, Twitter, PayPal, Amazon and Zynga.  So what is it about Ireland that makes it such an attractive place to invest?”
