Is the South-East of Ireland a Good Place to Invest for a Tech Firm?

 Tech Firms Investing in the South-East


Hello again, everyone. I hope you all enjoyed my previous blog :). Today I will be touching on Tech Fims and their Investment in the South-East region of Ireland (My home region). I hope you all enjoy reading this blog as much as much as i enjoyed writing it.😆

The South-East

The South-East is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful regions on the island of Ireland. It is known for it's amazing beaches, sea-views and vibrant people. The region is fondly referred to as the, 'Sunny South-East.'Check out this link for more info Sunny South-East. Personally, I love living here (Waterford) for these exact reasons.

Why Invest in the South-East?

Currently, there are many tech firms operating in this region. Company's such as, TQS, SE2, Dataworks, Nearform, and many others. Operating here certainly comes with it's benefits for employees. 


In 2020, the CEO of TQS Integration, Ger Finnin, said that his staff can have a better lifestyle here in comparison to Dublin or Cork as commutes are short and people are not caught in Traffic. These positive comments from importanat people encourage other tech firms to invest and setup in the South-East. As I am someone that lives here I can confirm that the quality of life here is great. 

The South-East of Ireland is also very accessible for customers, manufacturers, suppliers and delivery couriers. It is also a lot cheaper for firms to setup here rather in comparison to Dublin. Since setting-up in Dublin is very costly, the road infrastructure surrounding the different counties links the region with a large city like, Dublin. 

Companies like, UPS have proved to help tech firms with many logistical problems that they may incur. They offer services such as, moving goods, sales support, multi-channel distribution and much more. Feel free to check out this link to learn more :). UPS 

I hope you guys enjoyed my second blog!

Hello & Welcome to My First Blog

 My First Blog Post Jack Deegan Introduction Hello, everyone! My name is Jack Deegan, I am a final year Accounting student currently living and studying in Waterford, Ireland. I have recently just came home from a Summer of travelling in Canada, where I was immersed in a new culture on the opposite side of the world. It was amazing to see what Canada had to offer such as; their wildlife, landscape and everyone's enthusiasm for the outdoors. I believe that this trip allowed me to grow up very quickly as I didn't have my parents to rely on for everyday essentials and had to fend for myself which empowered me. This gave me a great sense of independence. Here's a link to 13 reasons why you should visit Canada!  13 Reasons to Visit Canada   Life upon arriving home Since arriving home to Ireland I have spent my time with friends and family, reconnecting with these people that I haven't seen in quite some time has been a refreshing experience.

  In today’s fast-paced business environment, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are increasingly turning to Software as a Service (SaaS) Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems. These cloud-based solutions offer a fast, efficient and cost-effective way for SMEs to streamline operations, improve productivity, and drive growth. Here's a link to NETSuite, check them out!  Net Suite One of the primary advantages of SaaS ERP is its affordability. Traditional ERP systems often require hefty upfront investments in hardware and software.
