Elkstone to Sponsor Irish Olympic Sailing NYC Member Finn Lynch on Road to Paris 2024

28-year-old NYC sailor becomes latest Brand Ambassador for the Irish Alternatives Investment Firm

 Elkstone, Ireland’s leading alternatives investment firm, today announced a new partnership with Irish Olympic sailor Finn Lynch. The Irish athlete first represented Ireland at the 2016 Olympic Games, and he secured his place at the 2024 games after a bronze medal win at the European ILCA7 championships in Athens, Greece earlier this year. 

The sponsorship will see Ekstone provide support for the 28-year-old sailor as he continues preparations for Paris 2024. In addition to backing Finn Lynch’s bid for a podium finish, as part of the deal Elkstone has committed to further helping the Carlow-native and National Yacht Club member achieve his goals beyond the summer games, which take place from July to August. 

“As an athlete preparing for the Olympics, particularly for a solo-sport like sailing, having the right support network around you is everything. Heading into the final stretch on the road to Paris, I’m incredibly grateful to be adding Elkstone to that group of people, and I’m looking forward to working with the team in the year ahead.” said Finn Lynch, Irish Olympian 

Speaking on the announcement Elkstone CEO & Co-Founder Alan Merriman said; “We are immensely proud to welcome Finn Lynch to the Elkstone family. At Elkstone, for us and our clients, investment performance matters as does grit, character and the impact of backing deserving investments. Finn’s drive, determination, and commitment to his passion is an inspiration and we are backing him all the way.”
