We are delighted to expand our footprint in Galway,” said Brian Stafford, CEO of Diligent. “Our new office will enable us to continue to attract the best talent, putting us in a strong position to empower leaders with the technology, insights and connections they need to drive greater impact and lead with purpose.

Executive Director of IDA Ireland Mary Buckley said: “Back in 2020, Diligent announced Galway as the location of its European hub. This confident commitment to the West region and indeed Ireland is paying off and it’s wonderful to celebrate the official opening at Bonham Quay. In the past two and half years, Diligent has grown its team here to 275 people. Diligent is a welcome addition to the West region’s growing Tech cluster.”
