Business lessons from the Gulf

Irish exports to Arab countries are booming, with further opportunities likely, writes Teddy Murphy. 

Irish exports to Arab markets have surpassed all forecasts with the value of goods and services topping €5.3bn in 2015 from a previous high of €4bn in 2014.

With countries and regions such as offering considerable opportunities for Irish businesses, the 2016 Arab-Irish Business Forum will take place at Dublin Castle on April 15 and has been organised for those doing business or looking for new opportunities outside of Ireland.
