FinTrU attended the launch of the Belfast Business Awards 2019 this week at Grand Central Hotel. The launch saw sponsors, local companies, past winners and key members of the Northern Ireland Business community gather together to launch the highly coveted annual awards.
FinTrU is pleased to support and sponsor the Best New Business category at the Belfast Business Awards this year. After much success last year and winning accolades for Business Growth and Best Company to work for 2018, FinTrU wants to empower new businesses to aim for success in 2019.
FinTrU understands the potential challenges that emerging businesses face in their first few years. As a relatively new company, FinTrU has experienced the same journey that all new companies undertake. The key reason FinTrU is sponsoring the Best New Business Award is because we want to support and more importantly inspire new businesses to achieve success. We hope to motivate new and upcoming businesses to achieve excellence.
Sinead Carville, Executive Director of Human Resources, was part of a previous winners panel that spoke at the launch and shared the impact the awards had on FinTrU in 2018. Sinead said “these awards were the first that FinTrU won and will always remain special to us. To win best place to work and business growth created a great buzz across the company including the Directors, Managers and the latest Academy. It really was a reward for the hard work put in by everyone across the company.”
FinTrU would like to wish all nominees good luck in the upcoming awards this year.
