History

Hibernia REIT was floated on the stockmarkets in December 2013. It raised €385 million in its IPO, €220 million of which it had invested by September 2014.
The company met criticism when, in April 2015, it demolished the Windmill Lane studio where U2 had recorded their debut album, Boy. The iconic graffiti wall was preserved and auctioned to raise funds for Movember.
Kevin Nolan joined the company as CEO in November 2015, from WK Nolan REIT.
In 2017, Hibernia REIT worked with Twitter to repurpose the offices at Cumberland Place, Dublin 2. The finished space was awarded a LEED Platinum award.

Hibernia REIT won a Silver EPRA Best Practices Recommendations Award for financial reporting in 2015 and a Gold in 2016, 2017 and 2018.
It also won a Bronze EPRA Best Practices Recommendations for sustainability in 2016, a Silver in 2017 and a Gold in 2018.
