Mr. Hyland commented on the success of Irish involvement in America over the last number of years:
Despite the unprecedented challenges of the past two years, Irish businesses have not only survived but thrived, expanding their investment footprint across the United States.
2022 has seen more growth as Irish FDI across in the US continues to contribute to an array of industries including construction, food, life sciences, software, ICT and business services. 100,000 US workers are employed by US affiliates of Irish-owned firms with Irish-owned companies in almost 2,200 locations in the US. Approximately 900 Irish companies are exporting across the Atlantic.
