60 New Jobs Announced For Dublin

Sixty new jobs are to be created in Dublin with the expansion of US-based firm 6D Global Technologies, who have announced the opening of their first European officer in Ireland.

The digital business solutions company will open in Dublin, where it will focus on sales and solution support of the company’s growing European business, in addition to extending support access for all of 6D Global’s clients looking to expand globally.

It is understood that 6D Global was introduced to Ireland through ConnectIreland, the company responsible for delivering the Government's Succeed in Ireland initiative, as part of the Action Plan for Jobs, in association with IDA Ireland.

"We are seeing a tremendous demand from our customers to have one digital solution partner that is positioned to support their growth globally," said Tejune Kang, CEO for 6D Global Technologies, Inc.

"Our global customer footprint makes it increasingly important for us to offer local representation to our customers around the world. When we assessed where to establish our European base of operations, Ireland was a logical choice given its growing reputation in driving world-class innovation and access to talent. Ireland is a perfect springboard into 6D Global’s growth internationally."

Welcoming the announcement, Ireland’s Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation, Richard Bruton TD said: "I am delighted that 6D Global has chosen Ireland to establish their European operations. This announcement is another Succeed in Ireland project supported by my Department through IDA Ireland in association with Connect Ireland and demonstrates how reaching out to the Irish diaspora through this Government initiative has brought many new companies to invest in Ireland. Once again our top-class workforce and support for businesses are making Ireland the destination of choice for companies looking to establish a European base. I wish 6D Global every success in the future."

Joanna Murphy, ConnectIreland CEO, said: "It is great to see another 60 jobs being created through the Succeed in Ireland initiative. 6D Global is a leader in digital solutions and Dublin offers the perfect tech infrastructure to support their expansion. We are delighted to welcome them to Ireland."
