Mr McKee made clear that the investment was not influenced by Brexit’s Northern Ireland Protocol, as the services sector in which Agio operates is not covered by that trading arrangement. “Agio’s investment here will add to our pool of expertise, and will lead to the creation of 100 high-quality technology jobs over the next five years,” he said. “Investment such as this will play an important role in building our economic recovery.” Invest NI chief executive Kevin Holland said: “We’ve been working with Agio since 2019 to showcase our local tech talent through introductions to universities, colleges and existing investors. It is clear that technology will play a significant part in Northern Ireland’s growth, and this project will make an important contribution to the ICT sector as we move forward post-pandemic.”
