IDA Welcomes Recruitment Campaign From Eli Lilly

The announcement that Eli Lilly are beginning a new recruitment campaign to hire 100 people is positive news for the pharmaceutical industry in Ireland, according to IDA Ireland.

The recruitment campaign follows recent announcements in the pharma space by companies like Regeneron (Limerick), Alexion (Dublin) and BioMarin (Cork).

In a statement IDA Ireland said: "Pharmaceutical companies like Eli Lilly continue to choose Ireland for a number of reasons. One of the main reasons is the world-class pharma infrastructure we have in place in Ireland.

"One of the jewels in the crown of the pharma industry in Ireland is the National Institute for Bioprocessing Research and Training (NIBRT)."

NIBRT is funded by the Irish Government through Department of Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation through IDA Ireland.
