Mid-West ‘boom region for graduates’

JOBS security in the Mid-West is underpinned by the high-quality graduates being turned out at the University of Limerick and the Limerick Institute of Technology, Enterprise Minister Micheal Martin said yesterday.

The minister was in the city to announce 151 new high-quality jobs in three companies. A further 97 jobs were announced for Shannon by two new companies locating in the airport’s Free Zone.

One of the new companies locating in Limerick, ACI Worldwide, is a provider of software for electronics payment systems. ACI will create 100 jobs in R&D, software, technical support and finance. .
