Digital Dún Laoghaire: People, Property and Partnerships Showcase

Digital Dún Laoghaire is an initiative of the Dún Laoghaire Business Improvement District. It is supported by key stakeholders in the town and was launched by Minister of Jobs, Enterprise & Innovation Mary Mitchell O’Connor on the 30th September 2016.

Its goal is to build a strong cluster of digital companies in Dún Laoghaire for the dual purposes of innovation and urban regeneration. It is a local project which has national significance because this blueprint will be shared with towns across the country as it progresses.

Dún Laoghaire is a great place to do business. It is home to more than 60 companies in the Digital Space, including a number of multinational players and fast growing newcomers. Only a 10 minute DART journey away from Grand Canal Dock and its global giants, Dún Laoghaire has a lot to offer.

To highlight the benefits of setting up a business in Dún Laoghaire and the benefits of locating there, a showcase event is being held on Friday the 2 December in the Studio at the DLR Lexicon Library in Dún Laoghaire.

The event will feature:
