The collaboration between FinTrU and ATU Sport Donegal includes two sports scholarships which supports students who are completing a finance or technology-related degree.

There have been big developments for both FinTrU and ATU Donegal Sports during their partnership, something which is set to continue as they enter their third year together.

ATU Donegal Head of Sport, Michael Murphy, said: “In 2022, we had nine sports teams at ATU Donegal. That number has grown to 16 in 2024 and FinTrU’s sponsorship and support has played a pivotal role in allowing this expansion.”

The latest addition at ATU Sport Donegal for 2024 is its Volleyball team. Already established and playing in competitive matches, it is hoped that the offering of new teams at ATU Donegal will increase by two teams per year.

Established in 2013 and headquartered in Belfast, FinTrU provides technology-enabled client lifecycle management solutions for Global Financial Institutions. The company currently employs 1,500 people worldwide with offices in offices in Belfast, Derry/Londonderry, London, Letterkenny, Porto and New York.

FinTrU has also had its own expansion, having opened a new 21,500 square-foot office premises in Letterkenny earlier this year.

FinTrU Ireland Site Lead, Sylvester Clancy, said “We have forged a great relationship with ATU Donegal over the last two years and are looking forward to the year ahead. Working with Michael and ATU Sport Donegal is continually rewarding, with all parties driven by the shared goal of creating the best opportunities for students in the area.”
