Transition Into Tech

About Transition Into Tech

On April 3rd 2017, Mastercard Dublin welcomed 15 Transition Year Students, for a week long programme called Transition Into Tech. The programme which was initially conceived by Mark O’Looney and sponsored by Garry Lyons was aimed at encouraging students to think about technology, and the different job opportunities available to them in the FinTech Industry.
