Ireland and Israel are both modern, open, export orientated economies, which benefit from highly educated and dynamic workforces.  Israel is one of Ireland’s largest trading partners in the Middle East, with visible trade amounting to a half a billion US dollars annually.  It is not surprising, therefore, that there are strong commercial links across a wide range of business areas from software and the life sciences to education and food and drinks.

The Embassy runs an informal Irish Business Network for Israelis doing business in Ireland and Irish doing business in Israel.  If you would like to be involved in Network events, please contact the Embassy’s commercial section (Noa Sapir) on + 972 3 6964166 ext. 106 or contact the embassy here. 

The commercial section will also be happy to assist Irish business with specific economic and commercial enquiries regarding the Israeli market. 

There is also an Israel Ireland Chamber of Commerce based in Tel Aviv.  The President is Dr. Ben Nachman.  For further details, please email here. 

Further information on the Irish economy and trade related State and Semi-State Bodies can be found on the Business in Ireland section on this website.
