Intel is a world leader in the design and manufacturing of essential technologies that power the cloud and an increasingly smart, connected world. The company delivers computing, networking, data storage, and communications solutions to a broad set of customers spanning multiple industries. Ireland is Intel's centre of manufacturing excellence in Europe.

Over the past 2 decades Intel in Ireland has come to represent a diversity of activities across the spectrum of Intel business from advanced manufacturing to cutting edge research and design. Intel Movidius, a vision processor company, focused on low power computer vision and deep learning inference, was co-founded in Dublin in 2005 by David Moloney and Seán Mitchell and acquired by Intel in 2016. Our Innovation Open Lab-Ireland is home to a research team who facilitate and engage in open research and innovation opportunities in Europe focused on Energy & Sustainability, and Dependable Cloud & Services research. Both hubs are based at Leixlip. Our Research and Development (R&D) campus at Shannon, is a Centre of Excellence, for network transformation and cloud computing that is transforming our connected world.
