We’ve done our homework on the education sector. We respect the fine balance it strikes between reduced state funding and an inherent vocation to support the well-educated young people who will lead our economic recovery.
In every university and many of Ireland’s higher education institutions we have relationships that span from on-campus branches to capital development projects and student accommodation.
