IrelandThe flow of people and business between Ireland and the east coast of the USA has been established for hundreds of years. However, in more recent decades, the favorable corporate tax environment and highly educated available workforce encouraged an unprecedented wave of U.S. investment in Ireland that kick-started the much cited "Celtic Tiger" economy of modern day Ireland. Sullivan & Worcester has a strong relationship with A&L Goodbody, Ireland's largest firm of solicitors with additional European offices in Brussels and London. The head of A&L's foreign direct investment work, Aidan Browne, sits in our Boston office, working with U.S. corporations as they seek a foothold in Ireland and Irish companies seeking to do the same in the U.S. For Irish companies, their first step into the U.S. market can take many forms — whether to market and sell products or services, seek funding, acquire a U.S. firm with an established footprint, or source inbound investment opportunities. The key to success for these companies is often to build their business network quickly. We help orientate Irish companies in a new culture and working environment, and connect them with investors, customers and merger & acquisition targets to give them a competitive edge. We have worked with Irish banks, investors, venture capital firms, service industries, and technology companies as they establish and grow their U.S. market presence.
