The founders of Ireland Gateway to Europe (Sigmar Recruitment, MKO Partners, The FKM Group and ByrneWallace) hosted Ireland's First 360 Degree FDI Stakeholder Focus Group in The Shelbourne Hotel in Dublin on September 26th.


The IDA firmly believes that the success of their Horizon 2020 strategy depends on an unprecedented level of collaboration from all stakeholders in the Irish economic eco-system both private and public sector. Taking these words to heart, the founders of Ireland; Gateway to Europe organised this FDI Focus Group as a means for the private sector to give their input into how to attract FDI to Ireland.

Moderated by a very entertaining George Hook, the morning began with an array of distinguished speakers including; Minister Sean Sherlock (Minister of State for Research and Innovation), Chris Hickey (President, Total Defense), Barry O'Leary (CEO, IDA Ireland), Louise Phelan (VP EMEA, PayPal), Adrian McGennis (Founder, Gateway To Europe) and Frank Keane (Founder, Gateway To Europe), all discussing the importance of FDI and the role we all play in attracting it to Ireland.



Following this, our 50 distinguished attendees, made up of some of Ireland's leading CEOs from both the private and public sector were broken into groups to offer their thought leadership on how the private sector can support FDI in Ireland. Using these ideas a report of recommendations will be published in the coming weeks.
