Official Partner to Team Ireland

Sports have the power to unite. To bring together people from all different backgrounds and perspectives.  The Olympic Movement plays a vital role in celebrating extraordinary human achievement that combines the highest level of athletic competition with a spirit of friendship, solidarity, and fair play.  And never has this been more important than now.

That is why Deloitte is proud to be an Official Partner to Team Ireland through the Olympic Federation of Ireland (OFI) as well as the Worldwide Management Consulting Partner to the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and International Paralympic Committee (IPC).

Our purpose and our people are central to everything we do in Deloitte, and so our sponsorship of the Irish Olympic Team allows us to further promote those values beyond our office walls, by supporting Irish athletes and talent in their pursuit of the endless possibilities and impact that can be achieved through hard work, dedication & resilience – all the while inspiring future generations.
