“Well done guys – thank you for this. Padraic White – a highly influential former CEO of the IDA and a man perfectly positioned to provide a comprehensive overview of where we’ve come from as a national economy, and where we’re going. A concise yet comprehensive account of the evolution of the key contribution of FDI to the enormous expansion of the Irish economy, especially since the 1970s. Along the way, he provides detailed and illuminating insights into the internal operations of the IDA, the agency which has set the gold standard which others throughout the world are now following. Still very active and with his finger on the pulse, he also points the way to where Ireland needs to go in this critical period, especially in the area of AI. Highly informative, and well worth listening to. Having experienced a significant amount of frustration, during 25 years of lecturing on the Irish economy, at the lack of public knowledge, both on the key role of FDI and the extraordinary work of the IDA, I hope your podcast finds a wide audience.”
