IrishCentral's sister print publication, Irish America Magazine, has become known in the Irish business world for honoring Irish Americans who have blazed a trail of financial success either in Ireland or in Irish strongholds around the world. Irish America regularly compiles lists of Irish Americans in various categories to honor their achievements. The Top 100 list of Irish Americans is a virtual "Who's Who" of Irish America. Honorees are drawn from every fabric of the community, from sporting heroes and Oscar-winning actors to peacemakers and philanthropists. Some of the Irish Americans on the Top 100 list turn up in Irish America’s lists honoring Irish Americans by field or category. One such list of Irish Americans is the Business 100, which is a celebration of Irish-American corporate success. Our honorees represent some of the most powerful corporations in the world. The Wall Street 50 is a list of Irish Americans that focuses on the financial industry. The Stars of the South is a list of Irish Americans who have made their mark in the southern part of the United States. The honorees profiled were feted at Irish America's third annual Stars of the South dinner in Atlanta. Another list of Irish Americans is Women of Influence, which honors the women in the non-profits, the for-profits, arts, culture and small businesses who have achieved success in the U.S. The Legal 100 is a list of Irish Americans who are lawyers across the U.S. These Irish Americans share a passion for the law and pride in their heritage. Finally, Technology Leaders is a list of Irish Americans who combine cutting-edge technology with Irish network skills.
