Team Ireland in Canada

Working with state agencies

The Embassy of Ireland in Canada works closely with Irish state agencies to promote trade, tourism and inward investment. We can:

  • Support Irish companies who want to find and access new markets and help with resolving commercial difficulties where possible

  • Provide general advice on doing business locally and, through our network of contacts, pursue export and investment opportunities that will benefit Ireland

  • Work to secure market access for Irish products in key sectors in high-growth and emerging markets

Working with the right expertise in relevant state agencies is part of our successful strategy.
