Technology Ireland calls for 'essential' investment into digital transition

In its pre-budget submission, Technology Ireland urged the Government to put aside €100m a year until 2030 to meet national and EU digital transition targets

Technology Ireland echoed Ibec’s recommendation at its own pre-budget submission in recent weeks to deploy money tucked away in the National Training Fund to upskill workers.

Technology Ireland has called for significant investment to be pumped into meeting EU digital transition targets in a bid to grow the tech sector in the Republic of Ireland.

In its pre-budget submission, Technology Ireland — an arm of lobby group Ibec — urged the Government to put aside €100m a year until 2030 to meet national and EU digital transition targets, and to provide continued funding for digital transition measures currently funded through the National Recovery and Resilience Plan.
