The Irish Times

Platform Modernisation

Background

The Irish Times is Ireland’s leading quality newspaper and delivers news, opinion and analysis to 1,451,000 readers each week. The core activity of The Irish Times Group has evolved from six-day print publishing to a seven-day multi-platform news publisher with a market-leading position. In recent years, the Irish Times Group expanded its interests to include the Irish Examiner, The Echo, Regional newspapers and Radio stations.

fourTheorem very quickly understood what we needed and have worked collaboratively and flexibly to deliver exactly what we required. They’ve established themselves as trusted advisors and, more importantly, part of the greater team. I feel we have a good relationship that benefits us both and one I hope very much will continue.
