Announcement
IABA to launch the Ireland–Azerbaijan Business Survey this November
This November we’re asking Irish businesses in Azerbaijan to tell us what’s working, what’s hard and what would help.
8 September 2026 · 2 min read
This November, IABA will launch the first Ireland–Azerbaijan Business Survey. It’s a short online questionnaire for Irish companies that already work in Azerbaijan, or have tried to, and it takes about ten minutes to complete.
We hear plenty of stories at our events: the contract that took a year to sign, the partner who opened every door, the shipment that sat in customs for a month. The survey is our chance to turn those stories into something more useful: a clear picture of what Irish businesses need, which we can share with members and with policymakers in both countries.
What we’ll ask
- Which sectors you work in, and how long you’ve been active in Azerbaijan
- What has helped you most, and what has held you back
- Where you see the best opportunities over the next few years
- What kind of support you would like from IABA
What happens to the results
All answers are anonymous. We’ll publish a summary report early in 2027 and present the findings at a members’ event in Dublin. Everyone who takes part will get the report first.
“We want this to be practical,” says Declan Moran, IABA Chair. “If ten companies keep running into the same problem, that’s something we can raise on their behalf.”
The survey link will go out by email and on this website in November. If you’d like a reminder, sign up to our newsletter at the bottom of this page.
