We’re proud to share some incredible news — Vivian Wong, founder of One More Thing, has been named a Top 10 Finalist in the prestigious BMW Future Entrepreneur Competition 2025, a nationwide competition celebrating Ireland’s most innovative, sustainable, and impactful entrepreneurs.

About the BMW Future Entrepreneur Competition

The BMW Future Entrepreneur Competition is a national initiative presented by BMW Ireland, in collaboration with Enterprise Ireland and Peigín Crowley of GROUND Wellbeing. The competition seeks to highlight visionary founders across Ireland who are shaping the future of business through innovation, purpose, and social impact.

From hundreds of entries across the country, Vivian stood out for her vision in transforming floral design for the hospitality and luxury gifting industries. Her brand, One More Thing, creates high-end preserved floral arrangements that combine timeless beauty with sustainability — offering a modern, low-maintenance alternative to traditional fresh flowers.

A New Floral Experience for Hotels, Restaurants, and Luxury Spaces

Vivian’s pitch focused on reimagining how flowers are used in spaces that demand style and longevity — such as luxury hotels, premium restaurants, boutique retail, and corporate gifting. Her preserved floral installations deliver long-lasting elegance without water, waste, or frequent replacement — perfect for the hospitality sector looking to reduce costs and enhance guest experience with sustainable, design-led solutions.

From Kildare to the National Stage

Based in County Kildare, Vivian has grown One More Thing into a brand trusted by leading names such as Brown Thomas, Kildare Village, and five-star hotels across Ireland and Europe. This recognition from BMW Ireland marks a major milestone, placing Vivian among Ireland’s most forward-thinking founders.

“This journey started with a single idea — that flowers could be beautiful, sustainable, and effortless. I’m so honoured to be recognised nationally for a vision I truly believe in.”
