Director General of the EIS Association Sarah Wadham said: “Last night was a great event for the whole EIS industry and it was wonderful to bring together so many talented individuals from the UK’s early-stage investment industry. We were enormously impressed by the high standard and number of entries for the Awards. I would like to congratulate all the winners and the highly commended entrants, and to thank the judges for their time and expertise.”

The winners were chosen by a panel of judges which included Martin Fox, Managing Director of Bulletin Marketing; Lee Moran, Chairman of the Investment Committee at Baigrie Davies; Lord Lee of Trafford; Justin King, former CEO of Sainsbury’s; and Sarah Wadham, Director General of the EIS Association.
