Sanera Innovations Ltd. is shortlisted as ‘One to Watch’
We're delighted to share that we have been shortlisted under the 'one to watch' category for this year's Medilink Midlands Business Awards!
Celebrating Medilink Midlands’ 20th anniversary, the Business Awards are set to be bigger than ever as they continue to provide the perfect platform to showcase the life sciences and medtech sectors within the Midlands.
With an area boasting the largest number of medtech firms in the UK, supporting over 33,000 jobs, and seven medical schools educating over a fifth of the UK’s medical students, the Midlands provides ideal opportunities for collaboration and innovation. The Awards were created to highlight this and celebrate the outstanding work being undertaken in the region.
Melanie Davidson , Chief Executive of Medilink Midlands, says: “The standard of entries this year has been exceptional, with a record number of submissions received. Our independent judging panel has been truly impressed by the excellence of Midlands life science companies and the level of innovation demonstrated by our entrants. Medilink Midlands has provided specialist innovation and business support for over twenty years to help life sciences and healthcare businesses access support, creating clusters and developing ecosystems to help life sciences and med tech businesses establish, develop and grow here in the Midlands. We want to celebrate this landmark occasion with an evening to remember.”
Medilink Midlands has announced that it will be awarding a £5k prize to the ‘winner of winners’, which will be announced on the night.
Of the nine categories, and helping to provide the support and framework to help drive businesses to become and be more environmentally aware, Medilink Midlands has, this year, introduced a Sustainability Award, sponsored by patrons, Mills & Reeve LLP.
Applications for the 2024 awards have been reviewed by an independent and expert panel of judges, including representatives from the award sponsors. Winners from across the Midlands will be announced at a prestigious awards ceremony and black-tie dinner to be held at Athena, Leicester on 9 May 2024.
