Jane McCarthyJane McCarthy (born in (1885) was ultimately awarded the highest honour the French State can bestow for her heroism: the Légion d'honneur. The New Street woman, who had left to become an au pair in Paris in 1910, helped run fugitives through the Resistance underground at huge personal risk, even using her own apartment as a safe house. President Eisenhower even awarded her the Medal of Freedom and she also received the Croix de Guerre and the Croix de la Resistance from the French Government in later years. County Councillor Michael Gleeson is now urging the authority to erect a plaque to her memory in her home town.

  • Aoife Corcoran and Philip Crowe Space Engagers Over the past decade, as urban areas have continued to grow, so too has the conversation around what makes them sustainable. How can we future-proof our towns and cities? Founded by Aoife Corcoran and Philip Crowe, Space Engagers is a research and design collective of architects, social scientists, urban planners and others, working to make towns and cities more resilient. “It’s very clear that we are not integrating science and climate change impacts into planning,” Crowe says. “There needs to be more attention on bringing people along on these processes of change. It’s not going to work if you don’t bring everyone along.” Recently they have researched issues like vacancy in city buildings. A Limerick-based EU-funded project for 2020 is +CityxChange (positive city exchange), which involves taking a block of the city and trying to make it produce more energy than it consumes.
  • Cadhla O’Reilly and Sadhbh O’Reilly Models These twins from Lucan, both studying in Maynooth, who are 18, attracted the attention of Aislinn Lawlor of NotAnotherAgency when a friend posted an image of them on Instagram. That was in November 2018, and they were signed up straight away. Their first job was with acclaimed photographer Perry Ogden, on the Design and Crafts Council of Ireland film called Fi, shown in Dublin, London, Paris and New York. “They were busy studying for their Leaving Cert, so we carefully selected the jobs for them so they were not overloaded,” says Lawlor. So far this year, the twins, who decided to work jointly, have shot for Harper's Bazaar Arabia, been the faces of Cleo Prickett's new collection and fashion film, appeared in Conor Clinch's video of Dublin for Wonderland magazine, walked in the Arnott's show and The Gloss Look the Business event, as well as shooting the Christmas campaign for Savida. “Modelling is like acting,” says Cadhla, “and we show diversity and different types of beauty. Our confidence has grown, and you need it to model.”
  • Celina Muldoon Graduating from NCAD's MFA programme in 2017, Celina Muldoon received a Next Generation Bursary from the Arts Council. “The first two years following graduation are daunting,” she says. But the award allowed her to concentrate on making, and thinking about her art and the world. Mainly working in performance, her most recent project has been a gallery exhibition at the Royal Hibernian Academy's Futures showcase, where she explored issues of myth making, mental health and road deaths in the northwest of Ireland. Artists are shaped by the world they inhabit, but their work goes on to shape how we see the world in the future. Muldoon's project is part of her SIRENS series, which she also exhibited at the Kevin Kavanagh Gallery. It's arresting and exciting work, and as 2020 plans include research projects with Clare Kelly at Trinity's Neuroscience Department, and Rhonda McGovern at that college's Department of Geography. Expect fascinating findings, presented in a way that is entirely new. <a href="http://celinamuldoon.com">celinamuldoon.com</a>
  • Denise Chaila One of the most under-rated Irish tracks of 2019 came early, Denise Chaila’s brilliant Copper Bullet. The Limerick-based artist is elevating the scene in thrilling ways. Live, Chaila is electric, with energy that urges chests and fists forward. Her work with Rusangano Family introduced her to many, Duel Citizenship solidified her prowess, and there was also Sim Simma’s crazy Pass The Aux Cord mixtape, where Chaila stomped all over the track Man Like Me. If they’re smart, her presence and talent should send promoters and bookers scrambling this year to put her on their festival line-ups, and nab her for support slots for international acts. As the scene and industry grappled with contextualising Irish hip-hop, Chaila did it for us, rapping, “What’s Irish rap? It’s a sound that you can’t predict.” Exactly.
  • Ema The highlights of Ema’s 2019 were still coming as the year drew to a close. She played the now-legendary After Dark party at Other Voices in Dingle, on the back of a cracking set to thousands of ravers on Electric Picnic’s Anachronica stage, as well as a hugely enjoyable Boiler Room stint at Pygmalion in Dublin (which also deserves a mention as a club holding the fort for visiting and home-grown DJs), and frequent sets at Mango, a party at the Berlin nightclub Griessmuehle. This talented DJ is just one of a number of great artists with a show – Sauce – on Dublin Digital Radio, a platform and community that deserves a huge amount of kudos for holding things down in Dublin when city living can feel so hostile. In 2020, we’re looking forward to Ema’s own club night, Woozy, at the Kaizen Bar in Dublin, with plans to develop a record label later in the year.
  • Gráinne Mullins Lignum, Loughrea Two years of a general science degree is not the typical training for a chef, but Gráinne Mullins believes her time in the lab serves her well in the kitchen. Her science background brings precision to her cooking, and an understanding about why food behaves the way it does. Mullins started cooking as a teenager in a local cafe in Loughrea, Co Galway, near where she grew up. After leaving her science degree she joined the kitchen in Ashford Castle, working in the pastry section. Next she honed her classical French pastry cheffing with Scandinavian tones, working at the Michelin-starred Dan B, La Table de Ventabren in Provence. The Cliffhouse in Ardmore and Ox in Belfast followed, and now she’s come full circle home to Lignum, a new restaurant outside Loughrea. Late last year she bagged the title of 2019’s Eurotoques Young Chef of the Year. She’s heading up the pastry section in Lignum, but in a small ambitious restaurant there is plenty of potential to crossover, and for this highly talented chef to grow and shine.
  • Jennifer O’Donnell and Jonathan Janssens Studio Plattenbau Having studied at UCD, Jennifer O’Donnell and Jonathan Janssens moved to Berlin, where they set up Studio Plattenbau in January 2018. “As recent graduates, we still had a lot to learn about architecture, and Berlin was the place to do that,” explains Janssens. They have a busy year ahead – in Berlin, they are continuing work on their first house project, while in Dublin, they are gearing up to exhibit new drawings at the Irish Architecture Foundation’s gallery space. As well as this, they’re designing a pavilion as part of CoLab, a self-initiated group of young Irish architects who have come together to develop new ways of working. Meanwhile, they have been working on the Grangegorman development project, as well as teaching and running drawing workshops. As Janssens explains, a lot of what architects do today has nothing to do with building directly, but everything to do with making a difference to how we live. “That’s what we find exciting about the next generation; the growing opportunity to redefine what an architect is and does. Our decisions have consequences for other people whom we might never meet. But to do this we also need to generate awareness of and support for our role in the design of buildings and cities.” <a href="http://plattenbaustudio.com">plattenbaustudio.com</a>
  • Joan Ellison and Caroline Gardner We Make Good Dreamed up by some of Ireland’s most exciting emerging designers, and made by people facing social challenges, We Make Good literally makes things better. Joan Ellison and Caroline Gardner met when Ellison came to work at Quality Matters, the charity that aims to improve services across Ireland. “Joan’s background is in communications and retail, and mine’s in project management, and we both had a real interest in design,” says Gardner. “So it just came together – although it took, of course, thousands of hours of work...” A pop-up shop at Christmas was a runaway success, and a new workshop in Dublin is helping the duo to expand the range. Add commercial contracts from the likes of the Children's Hospital and Imma, work with young designers at NCAD, plus a new range for museum and gallery shops designed by Laura Buchannan, it's set to be a busy year. Gardner loves “how much people are moved by other people’s opportunities. When we can bring that, it really has a profound effect. Helping people to become their best has been a really beautiful part of the project.” <a href="http://wemakegood.ie">wemakegood.ie</a>
  • Kate Egan Kate Egan was teaching people how to live sustainably in 2016. But the week she bought a nine-acre farm in Co Westmeath with her partner, Tom Carlin, she found out she was being made redundant. The original plan to grow enough food for themselves had to change. The theory suddenly got very real. Nearly four years later, their two acre market garden in An Ghrian Glas Organic Farm supplies a small box scheme and two local restaurants, Nine Arches in Ballymahon and Thyme in Athlone. They have fruit and nut orchards and a food forest, a naturally regenerating woodland. They rear chickens, a pig, horses and ducks, along with a baby daughter who Egan carries in a sling as she tours the farm to feed the animals. An Ghrian Glas is as much a living, breathing education project as it is a small farm, and Egan hopes to marry her old life as an educator with her new one as a farmer. We’ve unconsciously engineered nature out of our lives, she believes. We need to consciously design it back in. With that comes the potential to make Ireland the organic green capital of Europe. <a href="https://www.anghrianglasfarm.com/">anghrianglasfarm.com</a>
  • Katie Ann McGuigan Fashion designer Print, texture, subcultural sources of inspiration, and an obsessive preoccupation with finish mark out the work of award-winning fashion designer Katie Ann McGuigan, whose work ethic is drawn from that of her parents, furniture makers in Newry. The fashion design graduate of the University of Westminster is now based in London and working on her autumn/winter 2020 collection. McGuigan has always emphasised sustainability in her collections, and all fabrics are sourced, printed and made locally to support other creatives and small businesses. “I want to grow organically and keep control of where my brand is produced – I never want to go to another country to produce my garments,” she says. Her clothes have appeared in Love magazine, Vogue Italia, Marie Claire Hong Kong, Metal magazine and Irish Tatler. Following a show in Paris a few months ago, McGuigan is now on the radar of netaporter.com, the world's premier luxury fashion website.
  • Liz Carolan Transparency campaigner Liz Carolan's work on the threat the internet poses to democracy came to light when she started the Transparent Referendum Initiative in 2018, advocating for more transparency in digital advertising during electoral campaigns in Ireland. Since then, she has founded Digital Action, which works to strengthen democratic rights in the digital age. Carolan has also hosted the Coffee and Circumvention events in Dublin, a series of panel discussions exploring digital disruption in democracy. With a general election coming up in 2020, no doubt her work will once again take centre stage.
  • Mairin Murray and Ellen Ward Tech for Good Dublin The tech industry may have tarnished its image in recent years, but organisations such as Tech for Good may yet provide a bit of rehabilitation. In Ireland, that is down to Máirín Murray and Ellen Ward, who co-founded the Dublin chapter of Tech for Good in 2017. The movement is about using technology for positive social impact, and isn't just for tech-focused people. It's a voluntary group, focused on inclusivity, equality and responsible, trustworthy technology. Since its establishment in March 2017, the organisation and its co-founders have held workshops, meet-ups and other events looking at virtual reality, app development, smart cities, 3D printing for good, and saving the bees. Its next event takes place on January 9th, looking at nurturing mental health.
  • Mary Newman Julian Fine Gael One of the most outspoken voices of the 32nd Dáil is Fine Gael's Kate O’Connell, who has frequently raised her head above the parapet on issues such as the health service, abortion care and the leadership of the party. While she will be fighting to keep her own seat in Dublin Bay South, the party is also hoping to get her similarly no-nonsense sister Mary Newman Julian into the Dáil this year. Newman Julian is a candidate in Tipperary, and says she will campaign in defence of rural Ireland and its way of life. As a vet, she says she will make sustainable agriculture and food production a focus of her campaign.
  • Niamh Condon Niamh Condon doesn't expect anyone to eat something she wouldn't eat herself. So when the chef took over the kitchen in a west Cork nursing home, she went on a three-day dysphagia diet to experience life with swallowing difficulties. Blended foods and thickened liquids blurred into muddy colours and flavours. Her teeth, gums and tongue felt coated, and she was determined to do dysphagia cooking better. Nursing-home chefs don't get awards, but Condon puts as much creativity into her food as any Michelin-starred gastronaut. She sourced moulds to plate blended foods in separate forms, so bacon and cabbage could look and taste like bacon and cabbage. In the Fairfield Nursing Home in Drimoleague, birthdays are celebrated with a customised cake rather than a bowl of custard with a candle. Food is key to quality of life, Condon believes. She has set up an organisation called Dining with Dignity to pass on what she has learned.
  • Orlaith Ryan and Sharon Cunningham Shorla Pharma A female-led healthcare company that develops innovative pharmaceutical therapies to help cancer patients, Shorla is picking up prizes all over the place. Sharon Cunningham, who co-founded the company with Orlaith Ryan in 2018, was named Ireland's Best Young Entrepreneur last year, beating 185 other entrants. Starting out with a grant from their local enterprise office, the Clonmel-based business is now in fundraising mode as it looks to create an innovative line of oncology products, with a particular interest in women's and paediatric health. The founders, who met when they worked together at EirGen Pharma, are a bit of a dream team; Ryan's background is in pharmaceutical product development, regulation and compliance, while Cunningham's is in corporate finance, accounting and fundraising. Shorla is still in its prelaunch R&D phase, but its first few products have already been presented to the FDA in the US for approval.
  • Paul O’Hara and Niamh McKenna ChangeX When it comes to making an impact, ChangeX is certainly rising to the challenge. The social entrepreneurship platform offers an “impact as a service” model to track philanthropic investments in real time. It also connects people with proven ideas for building communities, and the resources to get started. Projects range from “green schools” and repair cafes to workshops on using tech safely and pop-up museums. In 2019, ChangeX signed up with the United Nations to create millions of projects in line with the organisation's sustainability development goals, giving investors the chance to back them. The organisation is now in the process of raising $3 million to take ChangeX to the next level.
  • Sadie Chowen and Ralph Doyle Burren Perfumery The Burren Perfumery, founded in 1972, may seem like an unorthodox choice for One To Watch in 2020, but the beauty company is unorthodox. Bought in 2001 by Sadie Chowen (her husband Ralph Doyle joined in 2005), the perfumery's methods and philosophy were ahead of their time from the start. Based in Co Clare, they make and fragrance natural and organic cosmetics, candles and soaps, inspired by the unique Burren landscape. “We’re a different shape to most brands: we’re a manufacturer but we don’t live in an industrial estate. We’re a consumer brand, but we don’t really do wholesale. We’re a tourist destination, but our offering isn’t designed for tourists,” Chowen says. Sustainable methods and materials are a priority for them. Their big launch of 2020? Chowen has successfully composed a 100 per cent natural and organic wild rose perfume in recycled packaging, showing the industry heavy hitters how it should be done.
  • Shane Hassett and Mariana Kobal Wazp Established in Tralee in Co Kerry in 2015, Wazp has one goal: to become the world's largest supplier of 3D printed consumer products. It is already on the right road, helping develop Ikea's first mass-produced 3D-printed product, a wall-hung hand, designed by celebrity stylist Bea Åkerlund. It has also worked with Next and Puma. Wazp's platform allows large manufacturers to collaborate with 3D printing professionals to quickly bring new products to market. In 2019, the company raised €2 million in funding from backers including former Glanbia managing director John Moloney and serial tech investor Pa Nolan. Wazp is still a small operation, but it has big plans. That includes expansion of its manufacturing capability in the US, and strengthening its footprint in Europe.
  • Sharon Keogan Independent Sharon Keogan made history in 2019 by becoming the first woman in Ireland to take a council seat in two electoral areas in Meath. In 2020, she is setting her sights on the general election. If successful, it will be the first time that Meath East has returned an Independent TD. She will have to see off competition from the current Minister for Social Protection Regina Doherty, the Minister of State for European Affairs Helen McEntee, and Fianna Fáil's Thomas Byrne. But she is undaunted. “I think people are ready for a change. If you’re looking for help and come to my door, you will get it.” She says people from all over the county, not just from her own ward, are now coming to her for help. She has set up a text-alert service for different communities to let them know what is happening in the area, and says her campaign will be a grassroots one.
  • Siobhán O’Donoghue Uplift The power of the collective has led to massive social change in Ireland, but such power does not begin and end with elections or referendum campaigns. Uplift is an organisation that promotes social justice, and works to defend fairness and deepen democracy. “We know that people are not apathetic,” Uplift's mission states, “but desire engagement in our democracy. People want to have a say in decisions that determine the type of society that we live in. By connecting with each other, we will help to create a stronger, more powerful voice and have much broader impact.” Uplift's director, Siobhán O’Donoghue, has emerged as a leader in this arena, with boundless optimism and energy. MyUplift is a platform for petitions, running and delivering campaigns – from small scale local issues impacting communities, to national initiatives.
  • Venetia Bowe Venetia Bowe has been creeping up on us over the last few years. At last year's Dublin Fringe Festival, Chaos Factory, the experimental company she founded with three like-minded actors, presented its first production to much success. She toured in Much Ado About Nothing with Rough Magic. She appeared in Nora, Belinda McKeon's version of A Doll's House, for Corn Exchange. The Dubliner is set for another class of visibility in the next year. Bowe has a lead role in the much buzzed-about TV series Cold Courage. “We have an amazing Swedish director,” she says. “Half of the series was directed by a Belgian. It’s amazing on set. You have all these languages. In one corner Finnish. Then me in English. Ha! Ha!” An Irish/Finnish Scandi-noir, Cold Courage will land towards the end of the year. Before that she will be travelling to Birmingham with the acclaimed production of Louise O’Neill's Asking for It. “My first gig across the pond.”
  • Zara Devlin Growing up in rural Co Tyrone, Zara Devlin didn't believe that acting could become a career. “I used to put on small shows for my family, and was involved in drama my whole life,” she says. “But if my 10-year-old self could see what I’m doing now, she would not believe her eyes.” After she graduated from the Lir Academy in 2018, roles came thick and fast, with the Abbey, Druid and Gate and, most recently, in Rough Magic's acclaimed Hecuba. Now she's in New York, playing the lead role of Raphina, in Enda Walsh's theatre adaptation of John Carney's 2016 film Sing Street, which has just opened. “What a person!” says Devlin of the role. “So complicated and beautiful – I love the challenge. Because I mostly do theatre,” she adds, “I love how it’s live, every single night with a brand new audience. We all witness and feel something together, and it will never ever be repeated the same way. I think that’s pretty cool.” So is she.
