Canadian-headquartered eSentire, a leading global cybersecurity solutions company, is an example of the ‘land and expand’ principle in action for multinationals that set up in Ireland. Since its arrival in #Ireland in 2015, eSentire’s Cork City operation has demonstrated significant value and expanded its role. The company initially established a Security Operations Centre (SOC), employing a team of highly-trained cybersecurity analysts. More recently, the Irish operation added a unit that carries out threat intelligence and tactical threat research on behalf of its clients. “We have really expanded beyond just core security operations into other roles that feed into our service delivery, many of them are customer facing, so we are very much a service delivery Centre of Excellence now” - Ciaran Luttrell, Site Lead and Senior Director, eSentire Cork. #InvestInIreland #InvestInExtraordinary #LandandExpand

IDA Ireland’s India Director, Tanaz Buhariwalla, highlights the strides #India is making in autonomous vehicle technology. As India charts its course, there are valuable lessons to be learned from countries such as Ireland, which has nurtured a thriving ecosystem, including the Future Mobility Ireland - one of the most established development centres for advancing future-driven innovations. The collaboration between India and Ireland offers opportunities for companies and academia to develop safer, more efficient transportation systems. Indian companies such as Minus Zero, Tata Elxsi, and Aptiv are making significant contributions to the Connected Autonomous Vehicle (#CAV) market, advancing beyond traditional Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (#ADAS) technologies. In Ireland, key players such as Valeo, JLR, and General Motors, alongside research institutes such as CeADAR Ireland, Lero, and Tyndall National Institute, are at the forefront of #CAV development. A supportive ecosystem accelerates the sector's growth, fostering global advancements in autonomous driving.
