Intel Ireland
Intel Ireland is the Irish subsidiary of the U.S.-based semiconductor giant, Intel. Founded in 1989, the company is one of the largest employers in Ireland.
In the late 1980s, Intel was in talks with IDA Ireland about potentially setting up its European manufacturing operations in Ireland, with other possibilities being Scotland and the Netherlands. By September 1989, Intel had reached an agreement with IDA worth £87 million in grants to set up in Ireland. The subsidiary was registered on 29 September 1989 as Intel Ireland Limited.
Intel founder Gordon Moore came to Dublin to announce the 2,200 job project setting up in Ireland on 3 October. SIPTU were also in talks with the company regarding finalising an exclusive union membership deal. On 5 October, Intel submitted an application to Kildare County Council for full planning permission for the development of an “Electronic Systems Manufacturing and Assembly Industry” at the Collinstown Industrial Park in Leixlip, County Kildare.
Intel began hiring employees in early November and officially began operations on 24 November at their temporary premises in Palmerstown.
In January 1990, Intel were certain that they were going to go ahead with its $250 million plan of creating a manufacturing facility, including a fabrication plant, at the planned industrial park site in Leixlip. The foundation stone ceremony was held on 25 January 1990 at the nearby Castletown House.
By June, they were going forward with the second phase of the construction following the acceptance of its newest computer products in the European market. Construction on the Fab 10 fabrication plant later began in 1991.
Jacobs International Limited, the Irish subsidiary of U.S.-based Jacobs Solutions, were awarded a £100 million contract with Intel to provide architectural, engineering, procurement and construction services at the Leixlip site in April 1991.
On 11 March 1992, Intel signed a deal with Amstrad in Hanover to manufacture a range of Amstrad's machines due to financial difficulties Amstrad experienced due to the recession. It was felt that this deal would be another boost for Intel's facility in Leixlip.
