Pat Falvey is one of Ireland’s most accomplished adventurers and business leaders — a self-made entrepreneur who built and rebuilt his career across multiple industries. Starting his first business at fifteen, he became a millionaire by nineteen through property development before facing the crash that reshaped his life. Out of that setback came reinvention: Pat founded Pat Falvey Irish & Worldwide Adventures, Ireland’s leading adventure travel and retreat company, now celebrating over thirty years of expeditions, leadership programs, and personal development retreats from his Explorer’s Mountain Lodge in Kerry.

A two-time Everest summiteer who has stood on both the North and South Poles and led the largest-ever expedition across South Georgia, Pat combines decades of expedition leadership with real-world business experience. His story — from rags to riches to reinvention — embodies resilience, adaptability, and the belief that “if you believe, you can achieve.”

Today, Pat mentors leaders, entrepreneurs, and teams worldwide, translating lessons from the world’s highest peaks and toughest expeditions into strategies for success in business, life, and leadership.
