  • Employment Base - Limerick offers opportunities across a diverse range of industries and the area continues to attract interest from multinational companies around the globe. World ICT leaders such as Dell and Analog Devices are based in Limerick while the arrival of Regeneron and Biopharma in 2014 boosted an already strong Life Sciences sector that features Johnson & Johnson, Stryker and Cook Medical.
