Cowen urged to back Tralee’s 4,700-job pharma plan

Promoters of the Global Pharmaceutical Centre of Excellence (GPCE) will make a strong case for necessary funding to get the project — ultimately reckoned to create around 4,700 jobs — off the ground in Kerry, in January.

The delegation will bring with them the support of thousands of people who believe the GPCE could be the light at the end of a dark tunnel for the people of Tralee and Co Kerry, where around 17,000 people are on the live register.
