Dublin City’s best young entrepreneurs have been announced this week at the County Final of Ireland’s Best Young Entrepreneur (IBYE) competition.

Run by the Local Enterprise Offices, IBYE is supported by the Department of Business, Enterprise and Innovation and Enterprise Ireland. Now in its 4th year, this year attracted almost 1,500 applications nationwide.  

The winners were:

James McElroy of House My Dog in Dublin City was named winner of the Best Established Business award and overall winner. 

Aimee Madden of CliniShift in Dublin City was named winner of The Best Start Up category.   

Flavia Wahl of iBreve in Dublin City was named winner of the Best Business Idea category.

Each of the winners and runners-up will share in an investment fund of up to €50,000 from the Local Enterprise Office to help grow and develop their business. The 3 category winners go forward to the Regional Finals in Dublin in January.
