Irish-owned and founder-led since 2006
Five people, a windowless office and one Jeep. Twenty years on, we support more than 1,000 organisations from four offices across Ireland.
Five people, one Jeep, one simple idea
Kevin O'Loughlin, Barry O'Loughlin, Gary Byrne, Senan Finucane and Wendy Behan founded Nostra in Dublin in 2006. They started in a windowless office in Greenogue, and the first company vehicle was a 2004 Jeep Cherokee.
The promise hasn't changed since: we keep IT simple, and we do the right thing. The founders still run the business, and we are still Irish-owned.
