From 13th to 20th July 2025, the world’s attention turned to Royal Portrush as it hosted the 153rd Open Championship, one of golf’s most prestigious events. With the rugged beauty of the Antrim coast as its backdrop, Northern Ireland once again proved it can deliver world-class experiences – on and off the fairways.
At Funds-Axis, we were proud to be part of the excitement. Our CEO Darren Burrows and members of the team were on the ground, not just as fans of elite sport, but as representatives of Northern Ireland’s thriving fintech and regtech community.
Proudly Northern Irish, Globally Focused
Founded and headquartered in Belfast, Funds-Axis is deeply rooted in the values that define both great golf and great technology: precision, strategy, and performance. These qualities are as essential in navigating complex regulatory landscapes as they are in mastering the links at Royal Portrush.
As Northern Ireland continues to grow its reputation as a hub for innovation, we’re proud to contribute to a sector that’s helping put our region on the global map, whether through cutting-edge compliance platforms or thought leadership in financial services.
Why It Matters
Events like The Open don’t just showcase sporting excellence – they spotlight the economic, cultural, and technological strengths of their host regions. For Northern Ireland, it’s a chance to demonstrate:
- A vibrant and collaborative fintech ecosystem
 - A commitment to global standards in innovation and governance
 - A unique blend of local talent and international ambition
