Cork Business, Green Rebel has won the Rising Star Award in association with Enterprise Ireland in the 2023 Deloitte Technology Fast 50 Awards.
The Awards rank the country's 50 fastest-growing technology companies based on revenue growth over a four-year period, and this year marks 24 years of the programme celebrating innovation and entrepreneurship in Ireland’s indigenous technology sector.
Green Rebel is headquartered in Cork and operates a fleet of vessels and aircraft to map vast areas of the ocean. It has a team of scientists, chemists, engineers, ecologists, vessel crew and support staff across multiple locations in Cork and Limerick.
Kieran Ivers, CEO of Green Rebel said: “This award recognises the progress that has been made in the offshore wind sector in such a short space of time. The economic opportunities that lie ahead for Irish companies are significant and Green Rebel is an example of what can be achieved. The services we offer didn’t exist in Ireland three years ago, and already we’ve positioned ourselves as an organisation which can export these services to meet international demand. The market is there and it is reassuring that the value of offshore wind stays in Ireland, that jobs are created and the talent remains here. Green Rebel’s success is down to our strong teams in Cork and Limerick. We have some of Ireland's foremost scientific and engineering talent delivering to a global standard.”
In recognising Green Rebel as the deserving winners of this award, James Toomey, Partner and Fast 50 lead, Deloitte said: “Congratulations to Green Rebel on their success in winning the Rising Star Award in association with Enterprise Ireland. The Deloitte Fast 50 programme has been supporting and recognising Ireland’s entrepreneurial tech scene for 24 years, and Green Rebel’s significant growth over the last three years highlights a continued growth in the tech sector and the outreach of Fast 50. The Fast 50 network offers an opportunity for companies to connect and learn from one another and I look forward to this network supporting Green Rebel going forward.”
