Sligo: Live Invest Visit is very excited to announce a new Sligo Economic Dashboard to profile key information and successes taking place in Sligo and to be of assistance to all those who wish to be informed on key statistics about Sligo.
Sligo County Council in consultation with the IDA have developed the Sligo Economic Dashboard. This aim of the dashboard is to supply business leaders and the public in general with key indicators, statistics and maps that are easy to interpret. This Dashboard pulls data from a number of sources such as the CSO, Property Price Register and Sligo County Council and allows those using it to get insights into what is happening in Sligo.
The focus of the dashboard is to illustrate why Sligo is a place to live and do business in pointing to key indicators that are otherwise only accessible from different sources. The dashboard is updated weekly and we hope that it will be a valuable source of information.
