IDA Ireland

IDA Ireland works to bring foreign direct investment into Ireland and to keep it here. It partners with investors setting up or growing operations, and it can back research and development, including through employment and training grants. An earlier Industrial Development Authority was founded in 1949 and later given a statutory basis; the present agency replaced that body.

The current Industrial Development Agency (Ireland) was established on 1 January 1994. Section 5 of the Industrial Development Act 1993 created it, with Forfás and Forbairt, on an establishment day, and S.I. No. 376 of 1993 appointed that day. The order also dissolved the existing Industrial Development Authority and Eolas.

How to read these figures

These are reported values from published purchase order and payment records — not verified cash paid, and not total spending by this organisation. A row may be a purchase order, a payment, or another reported transaction; the source files often do not say which.

Coverage and quality vary. Some fields are blank, supplier names are free text (the same firm can appear under many labels), and descriptions are inconsistent rather than a controlled taxonomy. An amount alone says nothing about value for money and it may or may not include VAT.

Records are retrieved from each organisation’s published files such as spreadsheets, PDFs, and other formats of uneven quality. Extraction techniques (including automated parsing) can introduce gaps, misreads, or incomplete rows when source layout or quality is poor. Treat the data as a starting point for investigation, not a definitive ledger.
