IRELAND

Residency through Investment

    WHY IRELAND?

    Ireland is home to one of the fastest-growing economies in Europe and has been selected as the most attractive country for foreign investors for six consecutive years. The Irish government is determined to be an important part of Europe. Following Brexit, Ireland will remain the only English-speaking country in the Eurozone and will be the country with the youngest population. Although it has the status of the most entrepreneurial country in Europe, approximately € 800 million is invested in higher education institutions each year to support research.
