EU Business News is proud to announce the long-awaited return of the Irish Enterprise Awards, now in its seventh year! This prestigious awards programme is organised by EU Business News, a leading publication that covers the latest developments and trends in the European business market. We at EU Business News aim to provide a platform for the country’s leading enterprises to celebrate their successes over the last 12 months. These awards are open to businesses of all sizes and types that operate in the Republic of Ireland, from small and medium enterprises to multinational corporations.
Ireland’s economy is diverse and resilient, with sectors such as tourism, technology, pharmaceuticals, and exports leading the growth. The country offers a favourable business environment with a low corporate tax rate and a strong export market. However, businesses face challenges such as inflation and uncertainty about the economic outlook. To succeed in 2024, businesses need to adapt and innovate, leveraging technology trends such as AI, quantum computing, cybersecurity, and IT for sustainability and ESG goals. EU Business News aims to showcase the success stories of Irish businesses that have demonstrated outstanding performance, innovation, and growth in their respective sectors.
The awards process for the Irish Enterprise Awards 2024 is simple. EU Business News welcomes external nominations from anyone who wishes to put forward a deserving company or individual for consideration. Alternatively, EU Business News also conducts its own independent research to identify potential candidates for recognition. The research team uses various sources of publicly available information to evaluate the performance and reputation of each nominee. The research team then presents its findings to our judging panel, who make the final decision on who will be successful in this year’s awards.
Taking part in the Irish Enterprise Awards 2024 is a great opportunity for any business who wants to gain recognition and exposure for their achievements and innovations in the Irish market. By participating in the awards programme, you will be able to showcase your excellence and diversity to a large audience of potential clients. You will also be able to boost morale and motivation among your team members and stakeholders!
The benefits of taking part in the Irish Enterprise Awards 2024 are numerous and valuable. If you are successful in this year’s programme, you will be presented to our circulation of 58,000 and promoted on our official website for a minimum of 12 months.
In addition, our awardees are welcome to choose from our range of competitively priced promotional opportunities to increase exposure of the good news!

The EU Business News team work hard in identifying great businesses, driving many of the nominations themselves. We also encourage external nominations from the subscribers of the magazine, online visitors, social media followers, clients and wider circulation. Nominating parties are invited to put forward either their own business or third-party companies whom they hold in high regard.
All nominees are formally requested to accept their nomination. Should any firm or individual decline at this point, they are simply taken out of the running. Those who formally accept are given the opportunity to submit additional supporting information to cement their nomination. Although there is no obligation to complete and supply material, we have found that many nominees value this stage, in the process, as much as our research team do.
Our dedicated research team will assess all information presented to them. The team gather information independently from a variety of publicly accessible sources, which are assessed alongside any material supplied by a nominating party or the nominee themselves. The research team casts their final judgment, based on various criteria such as: business performance, longevity, business growth (either sustained or rapid), any significant innovations or feedback from stakeholders.
Once winners are selected, they are personally notified before any public announcement is made, allowing time for any communications throughout the wider business and the coordination of marketing strategies. Unfortunately, not everyone can be a winner; however, all who take part are encouraged to come back next year. Once the press embargo is lifted, details of our award winners will be made public via the website, award winners’ magazine and subscriber newsletter.
We are prepared to offer a range of promotional packages and items to winners of a EU Business News award, which vary from inclusion in the free-of-charge winners’ directory, to trophies, content in our magazine and on our website.
We encourage all winners to publicly announce their win independently in order to gain maximum exposure for their win. Announcements via company websites, social media, via publicly released press releases, and through local and national press are all great ways of maximising the exposure which can be gained from such a great achievement. If you have need of further advice, on how to publicise your win, please feel free to get in touch. We are happy to assist our clients with their needs.
The Nomination Team can assist with answering any queries that you have regarding a nomination, or the process involved in taking part in one of our award programmes.
Please get in touch with us via email or over the phone if you have any questions - we are happy to help!
It won’t take long. We’ll keep you updated after you’ve submitted your vote!
