Today's announcement that Salesforce.com is creating 100 new jobs in Dublin is a strong endorsement of Ireland's strengths in the digital sector and of our talented and dedicated people.

"Technology is central to the Governments plans for jobs and growth, and in the past two years the Government has added substantial jobs in this area. I have been strongly supporting the Government in this. Ireland has played a key role in the success of Salesforce.com in Europe and Ireland is fast becoming the envy of Europe in terms of the digital industry it is building up.
