Access

We believe private investment opportunities should be more accessible. We help Irish businesses connect with a broad network of private, professional and international investors.

Team

Our Team

Our team brings together deep expertise across venture capital, financial services, technology, and regulatory compliance. With decades of combined experience in the Irish startup ecosystem, we understand what it takes to build successful companies and deliver returns for investors.

We've worked with some of Ireland's most successful startups and investment firms, and we bring that institutional knowledge to every opportunity we evaluate and every relationship we build.

Spark Top 100 Most Ambitious Company Awards

Spark Venture Funding also champions Irish entrepreneurship through its annual Top 100 Most Ambitious Companies in Ireland awards, a national initiative that celebrates the vision, innovation and growth potential of Irish businesses.

The awards reflect our commitment to identifying and supporting companies that are pushing boundaries, creating jobs and driving the future of the Irish economy.

By recognising ambitious founders and high-potential businesses, Spark demonstrates that it is more than a funding platform — it is an active supporter of Irish enterprise, innovation and business growth.
