Ireland's Emergence as a Centre for Internationally Traded Services

Seamus Grimes (CISC and Department of Geography, NUI Galway)

BIS Room 2, The Corrib Building (Near St. Anthony's)

2.00pm :: 7th October 2004

This seminar will examine the emergence in recent years of Ireland as a relatively significant European location for internationally traded services. The considerable challenge facing geographers and others in moving beyond the production-oriented models which have predominated to date to produce a more suitable conceptual framework for internationally traded services will be explored. With services being increasingly embedded in products and with transnational technology corporations being increasingly involved in providing 'end-to-end' solutions for their international client base, a holistic approach towards analyzing the sector will be suggested. Evidence from a number of technology TNC affiliates in Ireland will be used to trace the evolution of ITS activities in Ireland.
