Apple To Create 1,000 New Jobs In Cork
American multinational technology company Apple has announced it is to create 1,000 new jobs in Cork.
The firm is to expand its campus in Holyhill and will be developing a new building that will provide office space and room for 1,000 additional employees by mid-2017.
Apple has also announced that it is partnering with the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland to support research in offshore energy technology and is establishing a €1 million Ocean Energy Industry Fund.
Taoiseach Enda Kenny said: "The Government's priority is to keep the recovery going by creating a positive environment for investment and jobs.
"Apple's plans for new facilities at their Cork campus that can house a further 1,000 jobs is a very welcome boost of confidence in Cork and the South West region.
"It is also a welcome sign of broadening regional recovery. These new jobs come on top of 1,000 additional jobs already created at Apple in the past 12 months, which brought the workforce in Ireland to over 5,000 in 2015.
"This continued expansion by the company is testament to the quality of the talent pool, the infrastructure and the business environment that this country has to offer and further cements Apple as one of the leading employers in Ireland."
