Invest Northern Ireland seeks PR support

The economic development agency promoting inward investment into Northern Ireland is seeking a British agency to highlight the benefits of setting up a business in the country.

Inward investment could potentially be hit following the paramilitary attacks in Antrim this weekend. But the successful agency will highlight to potential investors the country's low operating costs compared to many other in European nations, a well-maintained infrastructure and an educated English-speaking workforce.

The account will be expected to focus particularly on the ICT industry.

The account is worth five figures. Invest Northern Ireland’s incumbent agency is Edelman.
