Life sciences

The Life Sciences sector is thriving in Ireland. It is a significant contributor to the economy and a major employer both directly and indirectly. The majority of the world’s largest pharmaceutical, biopharma, and med-tech companies have a significant presence in Ireland, and many of the world’s most prescribed drugs are manufactured here.

We work with businesses worldwide to address the issues of today and anticipate those of tomorrow. From start-ups to established multi-national businesses, our dedicated Life Sciences team has in-depth industry experience working with companies across all segments of the industry, including pharmaceuticals, biopharma, medical devices, diagnostics, manufacturing, clinical research and development in addition to healthcare.

The Life Sciences sector is agile and innovative by nature, and we understand the challenges within the sector. We support clients through their entire business growth journey to help them stay focused on their scientific innovations and development while also working toward meaningful business growth. Growing life sciences companies can maximise value by creating new products and services to meet changing market needs, enhancing infrastructure and financial systems, outsourcing the right tasks and operations, and leveraging key tax credits.
