Professor Dominic McVey MBE

Dominic McVey became a millionaire at 15 selling collapsible mini-scooters from his bedroom and was named a Pioneer for Enterprise by Her Majesty the Queen at 18 years of age.  Dominic has gone on to become a global ethical business leader and created Hela Clothing.  Hela employs 15,000 people, with revenues of almost $200 million USD and operations in Kenya, Ethiopia & Sri Lanka.  According to Dominic he was able to achieve this, because he put people and community first. 

Dominic has been an adviser on entrepreneurship to the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment of the Irish Government, and has consulted for a wide group of institutions and organisations including the former Department for Trade and Industry and the Department for Education and Skills.  In 2009, Dominic was named Britain's second most influential business person under the age of 30 in The Sunday Times '‘Top 30 power players under 30’.
