Investing in Ireland: Issue 65

Workers looking at blueprints in a wind field
  • January 29, 2026

Welcome to the latest edition of PwC’s newsletter on foreign direct investment (“FDI”) in Ireland.

The FDI sector in Ireland continues to perform strongly, as reflected once again in the Irish jobs and investments announced since our previous edition in October (see page 2). 

IDA Ireland’s record 2025 results highlight strong momentum driving job creation, innovation, and balanced regional growth despite global uncertainties (see page 5).

Ireland’s thriving media sector, driven by a skilled creative workforce, innovation, and strong government support, positions the country as a premier destination for global media investment and growth (see page 7).

Finally, we highlight some recent PwC publications and podcasts on topical issues in the FDI space (see page 8) and summarise Ireland’s strong ranking in a number of key areas for FDI investors (see page 10).

Please do not hesitate to contact myself, any member of our team, or your usual PwC Ireland contact at any stage. We would be happy to tell you more about the topics raised in this issue or to include any interested parties on our mailing list.
