A midlands engineering company has won an award at the National Enterprise Awards.

Offaly-based Acoustic Interiors Limited has been crowned 'Best Start Upat the ceremony.

Co-founder Derek McCreanor says they were shocked and honoured to receive the accolade.

Westmeath's Strikebox Engineering and Laois-based Salutem Insights were also nominated for awards from their local enterprise offices.

Year on year the diversity of businesses and the standard of companies that are coming through the process is getting stronger.
