FinTech presents a unique opportunity for NI thanks to our four core ecosystem strengths.

Speaking as the FinTech Strategy launches today, our Director @davidallster tells @BBCRadioFoyle Northern Ireland has emerged as a prime location for FinTech due to our location, supportive local community, core expertise in RegTech and exceptional talent & skills.
"Now is the time to build on this and raise Northern Ireland to be a real FinTech centre of excellence," @davidallster adds.
On future challenges, he says now is the time to support start-ups, encourage young people into the sector and develop our local funding networks.
Congratulations to Year 12 pupil Sam Allister on his selection to represent Ulster Golf in the Interprovincial matches at Mount Wolseley Golf Club in October 2021. This is a great achievement for Sam in recognition of his strong summer Golf Championship performances. ⛳️ 🇬🇳
