Shining a Spotlight on Tech Industry Excellence – Technology Ireland Opens Applications for Prestigious Awards

Technology Ireland, the Ibec group that represents the technology sector, today launched the 32nd Annual Technology Ireland Industry Awards.

Technology Ireland is excited to announce the opening of applications for the Technology Ireland Industry Awards 2024, our distinguished award programme recognising companies that have demonstrated extraordinary achievements through the past year.

The Technology Ireland Industry Awards celebrate the best in the industry, shining a spotlight on companies that have not only excelled in their respective fields but have also set new benchmarks for innovation and business growth. This year’s awards are open to organisations that have shown remarkable leadership, creativity, and commitment to excellence.

Commenting on the launch of the Awards, Director of Technology Ireland, Una Fitzpatrick, said: “We are thrilled to open the applications for the Technology Ireland Industry Awards, these awards recognise the most innovative and successful companies across the industry.

The Technology Ireland Industry Awards honours the innovation and sustained growth that drives our industry forward, and we look forward to celebrating all who have made a significant impact over the past year.

The Technology Ireland Industry Awards offer a stage to both indigenous and multinational technology companies to demonstrate how the sector is contributing to national, European, and global digital efforts, and seeks to sustain and promote Ireland’s reputation as a global technology hub by emphasising the role of technology in addressing cross-sectoral issues.”

Marie Treacy, Technology Sector Leader and Partner with platinum sponsor EY Ireland, commented: “EY Ireland is thrilled to once again have the opportunity to partner with Technology Ireland and to sponsor the Digital Technology Company of the Year Award. At a time when global technology innovation is advancing rapidly, these unmissable awards enable us to take a moment to recognise and celebrate the continuous achievements of the technology sector in Ireland.

At EY, we believe that technology and Artificial Intelligence, in particular, can have a transformative, positive and far-reaching impact on all businesses – from SMEs to indigenous and multinational companies – as well as the people working in these organisations and, indeed on wider society, so it is incredibly important to showcase Ireland’s achievements in the sector and the continuous efforts and innovation that will ensure Ireland continues to thrive as a dynamic global technology hub now and into the future.”
