Team Ireland in Spain

The Embassy works with Irish state agencies to:

• Promote Ireland's trade and investment objectives
• Promote Irish exports
• Promote Irish food, culture, heritage and tradition
• Promote Ireland as a tourism destination

Working with state agencies in Spain

The Embassy is part of an Ireland House: we share our building with Enterprise Ireland, Bord Bia and Tourism Ireland. We work closely with these and other state agencies to promote trade, tourism and inward investment. The Ambassador chairs the local market team. We can:

• Support Irish companies who want to find and access new markets and help with resolving commercial difficulties where possible
• Provide general advice on doing business locally and, through our network of contacts, pursue export and investment opportunities that will benefit Ireland
• Work to secure market access for Irish products in key sectors

Working with the right expertise in relevant state agencies is part of our successful strategy.
