“A few hundred people in Dublin had a hell of morning as they woke up by getting involved in a full out dance rave for around four hours. Morning Gloryville Dublin hosted the event in the CHQ Building down at the docklands where the party started at 6.30am.” (26th August 2014)
Read article ↗“A recurring theme of Ireland’s response to its economic challenges of recent years has been to “tap the diaspora” through the Global Economic Forum at Farmleigh, the Gathering and the establishment of WorldIrish.com, for example. The population of Ireland is only about 4.6 million people.The global population of people with Irish connections is many times larger. It made eminent sense to tap into such a ready made gene pool of potential investors/ tourists/employers with an emotional stake in our nation’s recovery.” (26th July 2014)

This month saw the Fáilte Ireland applications deadline for a partner to build the new national diaspora centre, which the Government hopes will attract future hordes of wallet-waving Americans tracing their family roots. The State tourism body says the next stage of the process will involve the assessment of the applications by an “expert group”. So who are the wise ones?” (25th July 2014)
