Tiivistelmä: | Ireland is the tenth largest producer of drugs. From research undertaken during 1989-92, aims to identify how Irish industrial policy influences US and European pharmaceutical multinationals to locate part of their global subsidiaries in Ireland. Discusses the strategic locational factors and shows that government grants are only really attractive to European firms. Low corporate tax is the most important locational factor for both US and European firms. Other factors include high drug prices in Ireland and the availability of low cost but highly skilled labour. |
