When I first went to Ireland, I worked hard on a business plan & got a business visa for many years through the Justice Department. It was a long process but it was doable. I had been trying to get funding for an online matchmaking business in London for 4 years and finally had to close the business down last year due to the difficulties in achieving that goal. It appears that English & Irish investors are incredibly conservative and do not seem to be comfortable with technology or online business.
