Normal People star Paul Mescal, Olympic rowing champion Paul OâDonovan and Apis Protect co-founder Fiona Edwards Murphy are among at least a dozen Irish people included in Forbesâs prestigious â30 under 30â list of leading young innovators, entrepreneurs and leaders.
Other Irish people to make the list this year include Change Donations co-founder William Conaghan and artist Jack Coulter.
The Forbes list includes young innovators, entrepreneurs and leaders who are aged under 30 and who are seen as transforming business, technology, finance, media, healthcare, science, policy, social entrepreneurship, retail and the arts and entertainment.
Mr Mescal (24) is included in the list this year following his breakout performance in the adaption of Sally Rooneyâs Normal People. His English co-star, Daisy Edgar-Jones (22), also makes the cut.
