Kingspan has announced the opening of applications for the 2026 Kingspan Kickstart Sports Fund (Kickstart), inviting athletes and sports organisations across Ireland to apply for financial support to help them progress in their sporting journeys. Now entering its fourth year, Kickstart is open to individuals and organisations across both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. The fund is designed to assist in removing financial barriers at the grassroots level, supporting aspiring athletes and sports organisations nationwide. Providing targeted funding from €1,000 per athlete and €2,500 per organisation, the fund supports essential costs such as equipment, training, travel, and other critical resources. Applications are welcomed from all communities and across all sporting disciplines. The Kingspan Kickstart committee assesses applications across two intake rounds between January and June 2026, with the first deadline approaching at the end of March. Kickstart uses a thoughtful selection process that considers not only sporting results but also values, growth potential, and character. This approach enables the fund to back a wide and inclusive range of athletes and organisations, from local GAA clubs to para-athletes and endurance competitors. "The biggest barrier to sporting success often isn't a lack of talent, it's a lack of opportunity. The Kingspan Kickstart Sports Fund exists to bridge that gap. We are incredibly proud to continue our support of grassroots sport across Ireland, backing athletes and organisations who possess the grit and determination to succeed, regardless of their discipline or background," said Richard Beswick, Global Partnerships and Sports Sponsorships Manager at Kingspan. Beyond helping to cover practical costs, Kickstart offers recognition and encouragement at critical moments in an athlete's development. Since its launch, Kingspan's Kickstart fund has awarded over €300,000 to successful candidates across Ireland. Recipients include Sligo surfer Gearóid McDaid, who won gold for Ireland at the European Surfing Championships in Santa Cruz, Portugal, last summer, and Megan Armitage, who represented Ireland in cycling at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games before turning her focus to triathlon. Kingspan plans to continue supporting both athletes as they progress in their sporting careers. Other Kickstart-funded athletes include legendary handballer Paul Brady and rising GT racing driver Alex Denning, as well as teams including the all-women TC Racing Junior Ladies Cycling Team, supporting their participation in competitions both at home and abroad. With a proud history of fostering sports development through partnerships such as RC Toulon, Uruguay Rugby, and Cavan GAA, Kingspan is committed to providing a platform for grassroots athletes, local sports clubs, and community facilities. Through Kickstart, Kingspan continues its support of grassroots sport, emerging talent, and impactful sporting initiatives that align with its values across Ireland. Applications for the 2026 Kingspan Kickstart Sports Fund are now open. Full eligibility criteria and application details are available via the entry portal. See more stories here.

Kingspan, the global leader in high-performance insulation and building envelope solutions, has announced a multi-year partnership with Seven Clean Seas, a leading ocean impact organisation. The collaboration looks to tackle ocean bound plastic pollution and enable the recycling of recovered materials in community projects. Through this partnership, Seven Clean Seas will expand on its work in Indonesia (Batam) and Thailand (Bangkok), with Kingspan supporting over the three-year period. The multi-phase initiative includes installing river barriers in both regions to prevent plastic leakage into the ocean; re-roofing a community school in Batam using recycled ocean plastic; and supporting ongoing recovery operations targeting the removal of 119,126 kg of marine plastic from the environment. Seven Clean Seas is a mission-driven ocean impact organisation dedicated to protecting and restoring marine ecosystems by tackling plastic pollution at its source. Founded in 2018, the organisation builds and manages high-impact cleanup and prevention projects across Southeast Asia, deploying innovative collection systems, community-focused plastic recovery initiatives, educational programmes, and circular economy solutions that prevent plastic waste from reaching or remaining in the sea. Beyond environmental impact, their projects provide ethical, formal, long-term employment for over 100 workers, challenging the waste sector's heavy reliance on informal and often exploitative labour. Seven Clean Seas believes that addressing the plastic waste crisis at a global level means tackling the underlying social-economic issues at the community level. "Our partnership with Seven Clean Seas reflects a shared commitment to reducing ocean plastic pollution," said Holly Loughman, Head of Sustainability at Kingspan. "Over the next three years, we aim not only to prevent plastic waste from flowing into the ocean in these regions but also to build lasting waste management infrastructure that will continue to support the local communities beyond the partnership. We are delighted to collaborate with an organisation that shares our commitment to creating lasting improvements for these communities." In line with Kingspan's Planet Passionate goals around sustainability and philanthropic support towards communities, the collaboration with Seven Clean Seas goes beyond plastic removal through the recycling of recovered LDPE into roof tiles to replace existing roofs in the local community. Through Seven Clean Seas' cleanup operations this demonstrates how recovered ocean plastic can be used in local community infrastructure. "Kingspan has shown remarkable leadership through their Planet Passionate programme, and it is an honour to partner with a team so deeply committed to meaningful, measurable impact. Seven Clean Seas is built on certified recovery, transparency and community-centred solutions, and we're excited to work with Kingspan to expand this work across Southeast Asia. Together, we're not only protecting marine environments, but we're also building the systems that will keep them healthy for generations", said Oliver Kade, CTO & UK Country Manager for Seven Clean Seas. Kingspan's mission is to accelerate a net-zero emissions-built environment with people and planet at its heart through Planet Passionate, the company's global environmental sustainability programme. Kingspan has a strong track record of supporting ocean clean-up initiatives, demonstrated through multi-year partnerships with rePurpose Global and 4Ocean to remove plastic waste and support local communities. Having achieved its ocean clean-up target in 2024, Kingspan remains committed to sustaining this impact through its latest partnership with Seven Clean Seas. See more stories here.

Arbetsgivare inom industrin klagar på att yrkesutbildningen inte längre är vad den har varit. Yrkesutbildningen har drabbats av stora inbesparingar, för lite närundervisning, ungdomarna ska i hög grad styra sig själva, och en stor del av undervisningen ges som praktik på arbetsplatser. Det här klarar en del unga bra, och får en bra och praktisk utbildning, för andra är det svårare och slutresultatet sämre. Hur rättvis och jämlik är egentligen yrkesutbildningen? I Slaget medverkar rektorn för Axxell Lillemor Norrena, Ingeborg Rask från Utbildningsstyrelsen och Mikael Rosenblad från Kingspan som handlett närmare 70 yrkesstuderande genom åren. Maria Nylund leder ordet. E-post: slaget@yle.fi

Ze dachten dat ze ervanaf waren bij Philips. Patiënten, slachtoffers, de Amerikaanse toezichthouder... Met iedereen hadden ze een schikking weten te treffen in het drama rond de apneu-apparaten die vlam vatten. Toch moet Philips nog even herinnerd worden aan het schandaal dat de beurskoers jarenlang in z'n greep had. Want juist die beleggers die hun geld zagen verdampen, die willen nu hun gelijk krijgen. De VEB vraagt de rechter om een onafhankelijk onderzoek, en mocht dat grote fouten bij Philips uitwijzen dan kan er een schadevergoeding geëist worden. Hoe gaat Philips het apneu-spook weer terug in de fles krijgen? En is het dan ein-de-lijk klaar met het drama? Dat bespreken we deze aflevering. Dan pakken we ook de meetlat erbij. We gaan kijken wie de grootste heeft. Amerika of China? We hebben het over hun datacenters. Bedrijven in beide landen blijven maar keer op keer nieuwe plannen aankondigen. De geldput lijkt geen bodem te hebben. Maar wie wint uiteindelijk? En het gaat ook nog over de treurwilg van de dag. Dat is Jerome Powell, de baas van de Federal Reserve. Hij drukt de stemming met een speech vol waarschuwingen over de lage rente, de arbeidsmarkt, en: de 'redelijk hoog gewaardeerde aandelen'.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Peter Burke TD, Minister for Enterprise, Tourism and Employment, has today commenced a two-day Enterprise Ireland investment mission, focused on strengthening ties with some of the largest Irish-owned global businesses that are headquartered in Ireland. This investment mission will see Minister Burke visiting and engaging with a number of Ireland's homegrown multinational companies at their offices here in Ireland. Discussions will focus on exploring new opportunities for further investment in Ireland, addressing global opportunities and challenges, and potential areas for further collaboration with Ireland's entrepreneurial and research ecosystems. This is the first such investment mission from Enterprise Ireland, led by the agency's new Global Irish Business Unit which was established last year to focus on stimulating investment and deepening relations with global Irish businesses who are making significant contributions to the Irish economy. Over the course of the two days, a number of Enterprise Ireland client companies are set to provide the Minister with updates on business activities, including Ryanair, Kingspan, ICON PLC, Uniphar and Smurfit Westrock. This two-day investment mission demonstrates a commitment to nurturing indigenous global businesses, and provides a platform for significant discussions with the leadership teams from these companies around potential opportunities to expand their operations here. A key objective of the mission is to encourage more value add-activity by these global leaders in Ireland, and to help connect them further with the various aspects of the Irish entrepreneurial and research ecosystems, maximising their contribution to Ireland's economy This strategic investment mission comes as Enterprise Ireland last week confirmed that exports from Irish-owned companies supported by the agency reached a record €36.75bn in 2024, up 7% on the year prior. Employment at companies supported by Enterprise Ireland also reached record levels last year, with 234,454 people employed in these businesses around the country. Enterprise Ireland is committed to supporting companies at all stages of growth, including companies on their scaling journey. In our recently published new five-year strategy, 'Delivering for Ireland, Leading Globally (2025-2029)', Enterprise Ireland outlined an ambition of increasing the number of world-leading Irish companies, with targets of; 275,000 employed in Enterprise Ireland supported companies by the end of 2029, €50 billion in export sales, and having 150 large Irish exporting companies of more than 250 employees supported by Enterprise Ireland by the end of the five-year strategy. Speaking this morning as he commenced this investment mission, Minister Burke said; "Nurturing the development of homegrown Irish success stories is of huge importance to this government, and this investment mission provides a unique opportunity to engage directly with some of Ireland's top business leaders, to identify new opportunities for growth, and to understand more about challenges they are facing. Engaging and meeting directly with entrepreneurs and leaders is hugely important in terms of understanding challenges facing the Irish enterprise base, and I am delighted to lead this important investment mission." The travelling delegation, which will be led by Minister Burke with support from Jenny Melia, CEO Designate of Enterprise Ireland, also provides an opportunity to highlight Ireland as an ideal location for new centres of excellence in digitalisation, research and development, HR, finance, and sustainability. Jenny Melia, CEO Designate, Enterprise Ireland said; "Working with Irish companies at all stages of their growth journey is at the centre of everything we do in Enterprise Ireland. Scaling companies is a key priority for Enterprise Ireland, and it is our long-term ambition that exporting Irish companies become the primary driver of the Irish economy.

Let us know what's on your mindKeith Shorten invites us inside the commercial engine room of Ulster Rugby, revealing how his unlikely path from KPMG accountant to global entertainment executive with AEG perfectly prepared him for the challenges of provincial rugby. The Head of Commercial shares candid insights about arriving at Ulster during a perfect storm of change - the conclusion of their long-standing Kingspan partnership, a head coach departure, and CEO transition all within his first three months. Rather than being deterred, Shorten's background working with iconic venues like the O2 Arena and Hyde Park Festivals helped him navigate these waters while bringing fresh perspective to Ulster's commercial strategy.What really shines through is the fascinating collaborative relationship between fiercely competitive Irish rugby provinces. While Ulster, Munster, Leinster and Connacht battle for supremacy on the pitch, their commercial teams work closely behind the scenes. "Four voices are very much stronger than one," Shorten explains, as they tackle common challenges together.The conversation reveals Ulster's commitment to growing women's rugby and the commercial opportunities it presents. We also discovered how Shorten helped create Ulster Rugby's thriving Business Club, which consistently attracts 150 attendees representing 100+ companies.Between reflections on his personal rugby journey (including memories of carrying Cornettos and celebrating Ulster's 1999 European triumph), Shorten shares exciting developments, including the new SAM Mouldings shirt sponsorship and a soon-to-be-revealed stadium naming rights partner. Ready to discover the business beyond the rugby pitch?  Find out more about what we do day in day out at Sportforbusiness.comWe publish a daily news bulletin and host regular live events on a wide range of sporting subjects.

The Irish company produced only 5% of the tower's combustible foam but has been accused of “knowingly” misleading authorities about the results of tests done on the product. Kingspan sponsors Ulster Rugby and Cavan GAA. Ciarán Dunbar is joined by Belfast Telegraph reporter Liam Tunney. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On Thursday's Rugby Daily, we hear from Northampton's Courtney Lawes on the significance of Croke Park ahead of Saturday's Investec Champions Cup semi-final with Leinster. Ireland will warm up for their WXV1 campaign with a test against the Wallaroos in Belfast. And Connacht have made their second signing ahead of next season.

Our Business Editor Will Goodbody reports.

"Never in doubt" Those were the words I was repeating after Ulster's inevitable demolition of Racing at Fortress Kingspan. Christmas has come early. Ulster are class again. Having been luke-warm to tepid so far this season, have Ulster been bubbling away beneath the surface? Are they now ready to boil over following their best performance in over a year? If you missed his post match interview, Dan said that he and some senior members of the squad had been spending time conducting experiments - mostly what 'quick-tap' moves work the best. The results were released against the French side to devastating effect. Next up are poor Connacht (off the back of four straight defeats) are the next guests at the Kingspan and then it's down the road to face Leinster on new year's day. So much to talk about, so much excitement, so much uncertainty. To discuss it all I'm joined by an incredible and incredibly large panel. Nathan, Jack, Ian, Fergus, Daniel and Harry Jones. Harry Jones has his own podcast and you can find him on social media @haribaldijones.

In this episode, we dive into the world of cold storage insulated panels. Our guest, Maggie Christiansen, director of engineered building systems at Kingspan joins us to break down the tech behind the new QuadCore technology that's standard in all of their panels.

This is Dom Cooke and today we're breaking down an Irish business that has become the global leader in insulation products for buildings. Founded in 1965, the business is called Kingspan and today it has a market cap of nearly 13 billion euros. The bulk of their business comes from insulating big, commercial new builds – Tesla Factories, Apple's Headquarters, the Emirates Stadium in London – all places where you'll find Kingspan's products. To break down this business, I'm joined by Nick Griffin, the Founding Partner and CIO of Munro Partners. We talk about the ESG tailwinds behind this business, how they've grown through acquisitions, and their interesting go-to-market motion. Please enjoy this Business Breakdown of Kingspan.

Ireland is underspending on innovation and we need to significantly increase our investment to meet the challenges and opportunities of sustainability and digitalisation. That's the view of IRDG CEO Dermot Casey who says it is vital we support innovative SMEs to create the next generation of businesses like Kingspan and Fexco. 

Stuart Braine is the National Specification Manager for Kingspan Insulation. He has over 20 years of experience in the building materials industry and Brent Livy is the National Residential Sales Manager for Kingspan Insulation. In this exclusive interview Stuart and Brent explain why insulation matters, what does the R-value imply and what does it mean for homeowners in practical terms, what are the benefits of insulating a home, why do floors need insulation, which types of floors need it more than others and what the new building code changes for insulation and how will they impact architects and designers.This podcast was brought to you by Kingspan, the world-leading manufacturer of innovative, high performance insulation products which help reduce the carbon footprint of the built environment.

Massive reform and EU membership have brought Czechia and Poland to the average for European national incomes and now they are huge potential markets for Irish companies. That's why the government and Enterprise Ireland are over there today touting the wares of a slew of well-known companies including Smurfit, Kingspan, and ICON. Joe spoke to Dara Calleary - the Minister for Trade Promotion, Digital, and Company Regulation about the types of sectors that Irish companies were hoping to grow in both of those nations.

If you didn't see the game at the weekend, Ulster beat Edinburgh 28-14 to secure home advantage in URC play-offs. Ulster got the job done but, as some have commented, maybe not in the style that some fans would have wanted. Tries from Jacob Stockdale, Nick Timoney and John Cooney and 13 points from Cooney's boot secured the win. It's an interesting time for Ulster. There is talk of trouble in the camp, but the team continue to win on the pitch. A few big names have announced they are leaving and we await news on the status of others. The subject of ulster's performances is dividing fans – are we playing at our potential? Is the atmosphere at the Kingspan flat? Are we good enough to potentially win something this year or is this another year of transition and building? To discuss all these things and more, I'm joined by Nathan Johns, Jonny McCormick, Ross Barnett and Edinburgh fan, Craig Manson from the Scottish Rugby Podcast.

What an absolute delight and pleasure to be in the company of Ayrshire and Scottish rugby legend, Gordon Reid.Gordy gave us some of his earliest memories of his rugby playing background and an insight into his work ethic that made him a professional rugby player. We discussed 2014/15 Pro 12 season where Glasgow won the championship at the Kingspan stadium and Gordy gives us the details of the day. We also talk about Gordy's first cap against USA on the 2014 Tour and the emotion surrounding that day. The conversation moves onto his professional spells with Glasgow, London Irish, Northampton and Wasps, highlighting the differences in approach with each team. We get to find out who Gordy's toughest opponents are and the effect it can have on you playing against a certain Adam Jones.There is a great discussion around the transition out of the professional game and the effects this can have on a player and can more be done from the SRU ?We then move onto his role at Marr as both player and coach, taking scrum schools and taking the U16's. Great chat about a possible tour of a lifetime for the young lads.We managed to get time to go through a quickfire round before finally talking through the Scotland game at the weekend against Wales and what happens in the changing room at half time. 

Well, it's official… Ulster are back! Or at least they are progressing to the next stage. I think we're definitely right to celebrate as we haven't had much to celebrate in a while! There wasn't a huge amount of optimism for this winner-takes it all pool match, having won just one in our last 7 matches. Feelings of relief were palpable at the Kingspan. Ulster were improved but not perfect. We are certainly now moving in the right direction but whether this squad can get back to playing to its full potential remains to be seen. Indeed, to progress any further in either competition, we will have to punch above our weight. The Ulster squad and Dan seem to be relishing the challenge. Today's panel have the challenge of explaining ulster's maddening inconsistency and reflecting on a game which will have mixed emotions for our guests.

Almost ¾ of a million Irish homes are heated using oil. That meant that our households were especially vulnerable to the oil price shock - brought upon by Russia's invasion of Ukraine. It means that the Government has had to step in and subsidise energy bills for millions. But what if there was a renewable equivalent of oil that could be used to wean us off that dependency? Speaking to Joe this morning was David Blevins the Ireland country managing for OFTEC - which represents the companies that make liquid fuel storage tanks among them: Kingspan.

“Like anyone with ambition you're always looking for the next move”. Michael Rice's career has been punctuated by a series of very significant phone calls, each of them offering him the chance to work in a dynamic new company and environment. And, crucially, every role was a stepping stone to the one that Michael holds today – CFO of Glenveagh Properties. Having worked for some of Ireland's leading entrepreneurs and companies, including Dermot Desmond and Kingspan, Michael Rice was drawn to Glenveagh as it gave him the opportunity to put his own stamp on the role and direction of the business. At the time Glenveagh was a new entity but one that, like Michael, had great ambitions. There was also a potential IPO on the horizon. Looking back on the decision Michael describes it as “a calculated risk, but one that certainly paid off”.In this episode of The EY CFO Outlook podcast, Michael Rice talks to host Vincent Wall about his journey to the position of CFO of publicly-listed Glenveagh Properties, his views on the future of the Irish housing market, and what drives him to succeed. They also discuss:·         His experience of working directly with some of Ireland's leading CEOs and CFOs·         Executing an IPO and maintaining good investor relations. ·         Why IT Security keeps him awake at night ·         The CEO CFO relationship and why it is critical ·         The advice he would give to other CFOs.

“Dans le renouvelable on oublie souvent qu'une solution est de moins consommer. Et moins consommer c'est possible avec de l'efficacité énergétique ”Au début de la crise du covId-19, les marchés ont plongé, et particulièrement celui du pétrole aux États-Unis. Ce marché a tellement plongé, que les contrats sont devenus négatifs pendant un moment. Mais, au-delà d'être une simple crise pétrolière, cette crise nous interroge surtout sur la transition énergétique, et de nombreuses questions se posent : est-il toujours moral d'investir dans les énergies fossiles ? Comment réagissent et que préparent les actionnaires des grands groupes du pétrole, du charbon et du gaz ? Quelles sont les alternatives énergétiques, tant au niveau de l'impact environnemental que du rendement sur investissement ? Ce nouvel épisode de la Martingale vous aidera à trouver les réponses.Notre invité du jour : Sandrine Cauvin est gérente actions au sein d'OTEA Capital, notre sponsor depuis le début de ce podcast. Elle est notamment spécialiste de l'investissement dans les énergies, ainsi que dan les ISR, les Investissements Socialement Responsables. “Le pétrole aux Etats Unis, c'est du pétrole de schiste. Et pour produire du pétrole de schiste, il faut sans arrêt investir dans le forage. Et on a des sociétés qui ont carburé à l'endettement”Au programme de ce vingt-quatrième épisode : une explication de ce qu'il s'est passé sur les marchés au début du mois de mars, des causes aux répercussions de la crise qui est survenu, les particularités entre le marché américain et le reste du monde en terme d'énergies fossiles et de comment bien investir dans les ressources physiques et les ETFs. Ils ont aussi parlé des sociétés et des groupes qui allaient sûrement avoir un impact sur la transition énergétique, tels qu'Orsted, le leader de l'éolien marin, Vestas, Siemens Gamesa, des fabricants de turbines et d'aérogénérateurs, Nexans qui produit des câbles sous-marins pour acheminer l'électricité produite en mer aux centres de consommation à terre, ou encore Kingspan, qui travaille sur des panneaux d'isolation énergétique.Bonne écoute !
