• The Success of Ireland's Foreign Investment Promotion Strategy: A Reconsideration

The image of the Republic of Ireland's principal investment promotion agency (IDA Ireland), has been tarnished by the recent global recession and its aftermath. Questions have risen about the wisdom of using foreign direct investment (FDI) to fuel domestic growth and prosperity.

• Investment Promotion Agencies On the Internet: Evaluating Promotion Tactics and Web Presence

This article presents a comparison between the main pages of Web sites from several investment promotion agencies (IPAs) from countries in different regions of the world. Using content analysis, the study assesses and contrasts the communication and positioning tactics embedded in each main page based on the value-added and purpose of the Web sites, and the effect that cultural dimensions may have on these tactics. The findings indicate that countries enjoying a higher level of economic development tend to maintain better Web site functionality and demonstrate higher effectiveness in communicability. It seems that, not only for investors but anyone visiting a Web site, aesthetics and presentation are crucial. Relatedly, given that IPAs all target world venture capitalists, yet Western i...
