Rooney returns with Vimio

VIMIO, a Dublin-based technology company chaired by the former Football Association of Ireland (FAI) chief executive Fran Rooney, plans to list on the London Stock Exchange.

The company is raising around €7.2 million for expansion after share placing with private and institutional investors. These shares will be listed on London’s Alternative Investment Market (AIM) this month.

Mr Rooney, who rode the dotcom rollercoaster with Baltimore Technology, quit the FAI last year after a row with other members of the association.
