With 9 out of the top 10 global pharmaceutical companies and 8 out of the top 10 global medical device companies locating their European headquarters in Ireland, Ireland’s lifesciences & medtech sector is now established as one of the leading locations for researching and manufacturing medical device products globally.

We provide the means for achieving these plans through the provision of initial advisory services (e.g. company structure, tax advice and profit repatriation advices), outsourced payroll and management reporting services and ensuring annual compliance for the company with the relevant authorities.
