Diaspora

Strategies to highlight regional objectives and plans for engaging with Diaspora

In November 2016 we showcased the vibrant and growing economy in the region at an expo and seminar in Croke Park aimed at the Diaspora. The event attracted jobseekers, investors, entrepreneurs and decision makers. It highlighted the stories of some of the most successful businesses already operating in the region and demonstrated the advantages that the region can offer.

This free expo was launched by Minister Heather Humphreys and organisations present included Centre Parcs, Vistamed, Abbot Diagnostics and Cora Systems. A diverse range of local SME’s were recruiting at the event.

Currently county Diaspora Strategies are being developed which will highlight regional objectives and an action plan for engaging with Diaspora.

The strategies are expected to be published in Autumn 2018.
