The Business & Finance FDI of the Month for June 2021 is Dell Technologies Ireland. Dell’s Limerick facility opened 30 years ago. The company’s arrival in Limerick acted as the progenitor for its sales journey into Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Since that time, Dell’s operations in Limerick have evolved from assembly line production to a stronghold in the US company’s global operations.
Sean O’Reilly, vice-president of EMEA Logistics and Dell Limerick site leader, spoke to the Business Post recently, and said: “Over the past 30 years, I’ve seen first-hand the transformational journey Dell Technologies has undergone in the city […] From building our first EMEA manufacturing operations centre and supporting the company’s global growth in the 1990s, we have evolved to become a multi-functional campus at the forefront of emerging technologies.
“Our customer solutions centre in Limerick provides world-class resources for businesses, designing and implementing technology-led solutions specific to their needs and challenges […] Through our Innovation Lab, customers can also experience real-life examples of how Artificial Intelligence, 5G and the Internet of Things can bring business value, in developing digital cities and connected healthcare, Industry 4.0 and connected transport.”
Dell Technologies employs more than 5,000 people in Ireland across its Limerick, Dublin and Cork sites.
