Claim jobs lost over turf war between IDA and ConnectIreland
The ConnectIreland initiative was set up in 2012 with the aim of rewarding the diaspora and others with links to Ireland for introducing potential investors to the Irish market and promoting Ireland as a place to set up operations.
Under the scheme, the connector received a “finder’s fee” of €1,500 per job if the company went ahead with locating here, but it has been claimed the IDA wrongly blocked a cash reward to more than 50 potential job creators.
