Hi tech industry and pharmacuticals. Ireland is/was one of the biggest exporters of computer components in the world! (due to all the major giants like Intel, HP, Microsoft ect setting up plants for lucratice tax relief systems in the 1990's, and also Irelands knowledge based ecomony and skilled workforce)

now given the economic downturn in the general world economy, Ireland is shifting its focus to more knowledge based economy by our universities and entrepeneures being at the leading edge of scientific research on a world scale.

This is partly a result of Irelands educational system which basically means anyone can go to university (free fees) providing you meet the standard, but means more disadvantaged less well off teenagers can have the oppertunity to study without having to struggle to pay fees in college...university is no longer for the elite!
