Guaranteed Irish is proud to announce that Euronext Dublin has become a member of the eco-system. Both parties will work together launching the ‘Scale to Stay’ initiative, a strategic partnership aimed at supporting both homegrown and international businesses in scaling yet investing in Ireland’s economy. 

At a time of increasing international uncertainty, fostering strong economic foundations is crucial for both Irish and European industrial policy. The ‘Scale to Stay’ initiative is designed to provide businesses with the necessary support, resources, and access to capital to scale their operations from a strong Irish base. 

 

 

Brid O’Connell emphasised the importance of reaching every company across the country with the launch of the Scale & Stay initiative in partnership with Euronext . “As companies expand and enter international markets, we want to encourage them to establish and maintain their headquarters in Ireland. In today’s evolving global business environment, it is crucial to retain as many businesses as possible—both homegrown and international. With ongoing global discussions on tariffs, now is the time for Guaranteed Irish businesses to consider their long-term strategy and ensure Ireland remains part of their future plans. We aim to see more companies listed on Euronext in Ireland and increased investment in Irish-based businesses that choose to remain here. Ireland is uniquely positioned as a boutique investment destination, and we invite both investors and the Government to support scaling businesses that commit to retaining a presence in Ireland.” 

 

Euronext Dublin plays a vital role in Ireland’s financial ecosystem, providing businesses with access to capital markets to accelerate their growth. Through this partnership, Euronext and Guaranteed Irish seek to emphasise the importance of scaling and remaining in Ireland, which will in turn allow greater opportunities to expand, create jobs, and drive long-term economic prosperity. 

 

Niall Jones Head of Listing Ireland & UK at Euronext commented: “Being able to grow from a strong Irish base is important for Irish and indeed European industrial policy in these times of greater international uncertainty. That is why we are so excited about our new partnership with Guaranteed Irish, which will support both indigenous and international businesses that want to scale from Ireland. Euronext Dublin delivers a European listing which provides companies with access to capital markets to fund their growth ambitions!”
