This is an opportunity for Ireland we may never see again. All those UK based companies looking to establish an EU HQ will be looking here. Financial services and banks are the jobs we need to chase. They won’t wait two years to see what UK do as they need certainty
We will soon enough. once we know they are coming we can ramp it up. No city in the world has oodles of empty office space. Difference is we have the space to build it and plans are in place
The main problem on office space for financial services is that the operators want it in one central location such as works in London & Frankfurt. That may be harder to fix in Dublin, is there significant space left over in the docklands areas either side of the river?
Lots already in progress. Not necessarily needed for two years once they know it will be ready by 2020 as the city won’t decamp overnight but they need a clear plan on where they are going to have the European HQ and will staff it up over time
