It’s a fantastic achievement for one of Mayo’s most successful companies to be honoured on this year’s national shortlist.
Business and Finance, in association with KPMG, today announced the shortlist for the 51st annual Business & Finance Awards 2025, which will take place on Thursday, December 11, at the Convention Centre Dublin.
This year’s gala evening will welcome over 1,000 global business, political and social leaders to celebrate outstanding achievement, leadership, and innovation across Irish and international business.
Portwest, headquartered in Westport, has been shortlisted for the 2025 Business & Finance Awards, in association with KPMG.
Now entering its 51st year, the Business & Finance Awards Programme remains Ireland’s most prestigious business recognition platform, honouring exceptional companies and individuals whose impact drives progress, shapes industries, and inspires the next generation of leaders.
The 2025 shortlist showcases the very best in Irish enterprise, from dynamic SMEs to multinational trailblazers, highlighting how Irish business continues to set new global benchmarks for performance, innovation, and resilience.
This year’s awards received an increase (29.5%) in submissions, the highest number in over a decade. Notably, the Innovation of the Year category, introduced only last year, has seen the largest number of entries this year across all categories, underlining Ireland’s thriving culture of creativity and technological advancement.
Among the most eagerly anticipated categories is Business Person of the Year, celebrating Ireland’s leading entrepreneurs and executives who are driving business excellence, innovation and growth both nationally and internationally. The Company of the Year award will recognise an outstanding Irish or international business demonstrating sustained success, innovation and impact, one of the most coveted accolades in the Irish business calendar.
