Simon Coveney has announced his retirement from politics. We get the latest on this breaking news this morning with Fionnan Sheahan Ireland Editor, Irish Independent.

In the final days of the campaign for the local and European elections, candidates are trying harder to attract social media attention. Fine Gael has seen former minister Simon Coveney display questionable horse riding skills, candidate Maria Walsh appearing in a video choosing between US and European snacks, and Seán Kelly... going topless.

It's claimed Simon Harris would have an opportunity to address regional imbalance in Clare's favour during the cabinet reshuffle. The 37-year-old will officially become the youngest Taoiseach in the history of the state if successful in a Dáil vote to take place shortly. He would have to put novelties aside very quickly though, as attentions turn towards fulfilling the programme for Government, a cabinet reshuffle and the impending Budget 2025. Clare Independent TD Violet-Anne Wynne is voting against Simon Harris' appointment as Taoiseach today. The Kilrush Deputy believes this government is afraid to make difficult but important decisions like outlining a timeframe and blueprint to re-open the Ennis A&E. Clare's Fine Gael Senator insists the new Taoiseach is acutely aware of the adverse healthcare and housing challenges facing this county. As it's a coalition government though Simon Harris would not be able to appoint new Ministers of Health or Housing as they fall under the remit of Fianna Fáil's Stephen Donnelly and Darragh O' Brien respectively. But two ministerial promotions would be up for grabs in the reshuffle, after Simon Coveney stepped down from his position as Minister for Trade, Enterprise and Employment. Simon Harris' post at the Department of Higher Education would also be vacated. Ennistymon Fine Gael Senator Martin Conway believes the likely promotion of Limerick TD Patrick O'Donovan and Galway East's Hildegarde Naughton will bring an added voice for Clare, when it comes to forming major policy decisions.

Image details (L to R, Nick Ashmore, Director, Ireland Strategic Investment Fund, Jenny Melia, Executive Director, Enterprise Ireland, Martina Fitzgerald, CEO, Scale Ireland, Adaire Fox-Martin, Head, Google Ireland and President, Google Cloud and Brian Caulfield, Chair, Scale Ireland). Scale Ireland, with the support of Google, and also Ireland Strategic Investment Fund (ISIF), Enterprise Ireland and Atlantic Bridge, has announced plans to host Ireland's third Regional Start-up Summit in Limerick next month. The event will be officially launched by the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment, Simon Coveney. StartUp Summit in Limerick, February 2024 The event will feature a wide range of regional-based start-ups and scaling companies (including Kneat, Provizio, SwiftComply, HookeBio, Yellow Schedule etc.). The Summit will focus on the potential and the challenges facing start-ups and scaling companies around the country. There are currently more than 2,000 indigenous tech start-up and scaling companies, employing more than 45,000 people in Ireland. For each job in a start-up, five more are created in the wider economy. Ahead of the Summit, Scale Ireland in conjunction with Google, Enterprise Ireland, ISIF and Atlantic Bridge have launched the third State of Start-ups Survey 2024 (here) to get the views of founders and CEOs on the key issues affecting them and the overall state of the sector. These include the availability of capital, potential of AI, staffing and skills, as well as the effectiveness of key state supports and regulations. Almost 250 CEOs/Founders responded to last year's survey - one of the biggest of its kind for the sector. This year's survey also focuses on other issues including student internships, greater diversity in the sector, and increasing awareness of sustainability. Scale Ireland will publish the survey results to coincide with the Regional Start-up Summit next month. Scale Ireland is collaborating on the Summit with Dr Briga Hynes, Associate Professor and Entrepreneurship Lead, the Kemmy Business School, and Professor Stephen Kinsella, Professor of Economics and Co Director of the innovative Immersive Software Engineering Programme, University of Limerick. The CEO of Scale Ireland, Martina Fitzgerald, said "Our third Regional Start-up Summit comes at a time when the Government's ambition is to position Ireland as a global innovation leader. So this is an important opportunity for tech leaders around the country to debate the significant opportunities of Ireland's indigenous tech sector to our economic future - a conversation which is of growing importance. Our State of Start-ups survey will provide us with vital information on the key issues and opportunities facing founders. The Chair of Scale Ireland, Brian Caulfield, stated "It is critical that we get the feedback of founders across the country on the key issues and challenges that they are facing at this important juncture. Our Regional Start-up Summit and State of Start-up Survey will ensure that there is a greater understanding of the potential of the sector, as well as the challenges facing entrepreneurs. Given the current environment, this year we have also included questions on current issues such as AI, while access to capital is expected to remain a key concern alongside the rising cost of doing business". Adaire Fox-Martin, Head of Google Ireland and President of Google Cloud, said "We are delighted to partner with Scale Ireland for the third Regional Start-up Summit in Limerick. Google has a strong and proud record of supporting Irish tech start-ups and scaling companies, as well as the wider indigenous tech sector. Scale Ireland's Regional Summit is an important opportunity to promote dynamic companies across the country which are contributing so much to their communities through employment, innovation and growth. It is equally important for Google to support the ambition of these companies to become global leaders. So the Re...
