BUILDING BUSINESS TOGETHER
About the IIBA
The Ireland India Business Association (IIBA) was established in 2008 to foster and strengthen commercial ties between Ireland and India. Over the past decade, it has become the leading bilateral trade organisation dedicated to building lasting networks and partnerships across both countries.
There are incredible opportunities right now for Irish companies looking to enter the vibrant Indian market, and also for Indian investors (both corporate and institutional) who see Ireland as a strategic entry point into Europe.
The IIBA is at the forefront of fostering these connections. We’re dedicated to supporting and promoting these mutual opportunities and are recognised as the leading Irish organisation singularly focused on every aspect of India-Ireland business collaboration.
