ENTREPRENEUR Jacqueline O’Donovan has been honoured for her “outstanding contributions to business, community, and cross-industry collaboration”.
The businesswoman, who last year stepped down from the MD role she held at the family business O’Donovan waste for more than three decades, was recognised for her industry achievements by the British and Irish Trading Alliance (BITA).
She received a BITA Award at BITA Spotlight Awards, which were held at The Savoy hotel in London on October 2.
