Sinead Fitzmaurice, the CEO of TransferMate, took the overall WMB Businesswoman Award 2019.

Rosemary Delaney, the founder and managing director of WMB, said the awards marked a day of "celebration and contemplation".

She observed: "Our theme 'The Power of Opportunity' is one which all of our Finalists have grasped with vigor.

"They have identified a gap in the market, a right set of circumstances - that golden opportunity that separates 'doers' from dreamers."
