The American computer multinational Intel has announced a $500 million (€373 million) expansion of its operations in Ireland. The refit of Intel's Leixlip plant in Co Kildare will create 850 construction jobs in the two year build. Around 200 permanent technology workers are being hired in advance of the new facility being completed.
