Aero Inspection was delighted to partake in a trade mission to Singapore with the Irish Deputy Prime Minister (An Tánaiste) and Minister for Trade and Innovation Mrs Frances Fitzgerald TD. The mission comprised 60 companies, and the Tánaiste was also joined by Enterprise Ireland CEO Julie Sinnamon and IDA Ireland’s Head of Growth Markets Eileen Sharpe.

The trade mission saw Aero Inspection’s Managing Director -Asia, Peter Bagnell join the panel for a round table discussion on how Ireland and Singapore can work together going forward.

Key points on how Ireland and Singapore can continue to work together were outlined.
