Prime Arena CEO Dermot Rigley met Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney during his visit to Ireland, following the inaugural De Chastelain Public Lecture at Trinity College Dublin.

Prime Arena attended the Ireland Canada Business Association Summit at the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, exploring how sport can help deepen the Ireland–Canada relationship.

A group of past and current NHL players — including Stanley Cup champions and Hall of Fame talent — has invested in Prime Arena, a significant endorsement of plans for Ireland’s first permanent Olympic-standard ice facility and ice hockey team.

The Prime Arena team joined Barry Ward SC TD’s business breakfast in Dún Laoghaire with Minister Peter Burke, for valuable discussion on enterprise, investment and Ireland’s economic outlook.
