Dublin as Wireless Silicon Valley

By Nancy Gohring

I’m definitely feeling that my impending move to Dublin will put me in the right place at the right time: Government and corporate leaders in Dublin are hoping to establish Dublin as a center for the wireless industry where companies form a community that develops and furthers wireless technology. Some big companies that already have offices in Dublin or Ireland are backing the idea, including Intel, Lucent, O2, Esat BT and Bell Labs Ireland.

It’s hard to know if this initiative is merely wishful thinking on the part of city leaders hoping to spur an increase in business, but there’s no doubt that there’s still a lot of high-tech work being done in Dublin as well as some cutting edge wireless development. A bit of a boost from the government and some marketing could just spur it along even further.
