Our Story Begins with Real Questions
Back in 2019, we found ourselves frustrated by how investment education felt disconnected from actual decision-making. That's when Clearwave Prism started taking shape.
From Personal Experience to Teaching Platform
The idea came from watching friends make investment decisions based on headlines rather than understanding. We'd spent years in financial services and kept seeing the same pattern — people wanted to learn, but traditional education felt too academic.
So we started small. Weekend workshops in Dublin, then Cork. People appreciated the practical approach, and word spread. What began as informal sessions evolved into structured programs that actually prepare you for real investment decisions.
What Drives Our Approach
Practical Learning
We focus on scenarios you'll actually encounter, not textbook examples that never quite match reality.
Decision Training
Building confidence through understanding why certain strategies work in specific situations.
Ongoing Support
Investment markets change, and so should your understanding. We're here for the long term.
