The 2024 EY World Entrepreneur Of The Year Awards take place this week and Ireland and Monaghan will be represented by Sam Moffett, Managing Director and Founder of Moffett Automated Storage.
Sam will depart for Monaco today to represent Ireland at the EY World Entrepreneur of the Year 2024 awards. Sam was named 2023 EY Ireland Entrepreneur Of The Year in November last year.
The World EY Entrepreneur of the Year 2024 awards will celebrate 51 visionary entrepreneurs, representing 47 countries, each of whom was chosen as the EY Entrepreneur Of The Year winner in their respective countries and jurisdictions. The overall winner will be announced at a gala awards ceremony in Monaco this Thursday.
Specialising in providing automated solutions and 24-hour support to clients to make their storage facilities more efficient, Moffett Automated Storge has created disruptive, dynamic solutions that can double warehouse capacity as well as halve energy consumption for cold-storage facilities. A third-generation entrepreneur and engineer, Sam grew up just 50 metres from the Moffett Engineering manufacturing facility in Monaghan. He started Moffett Automated Storage in 2017 with just 3 employees and has grown that to 65 staff with a hope to grow to 85 employees this year, many of whom are based in Monaghan.
Sam says he's honored to join the impressive group of finalists from across the globe as he represents Ireland in a bid for the prestigious title of EY World Entrepreneur Of The Year. He added that it was a privilege to get the opportunity to connect with a network of global entrepreneurs, to learn from each other and be inspired by the journey each person has taken to get to the world final in Monaco.
