News: Ryan Proud to Be Headline Sponsor at the Innovation Awards 2023

On Friday 27 October, Ryan was honoured to be the headline sponsor at the prestigious Innovation Awards 2023 held in Birmingham.

The awards, run by The Technology Supply Chain, recognise, celebrate, and reward the businesses, organisations and individuals who are dedicated to innovation. There were four award categories: The Innovators, Individual Innovators, Innovation Champions and Innovation Thought Leaders.

Following award nominations earlier in the year, Ryan proudly sat on the judging panel and was responsible for assessing the variety of awe-inspiring nominations and putting forward a shortlist.

Tom Kennard, Senior Director, Grants, at Ryan, was on the judging panel, whilst Jon Williams, Senior Director, Grants, at Ryan, was the Keynote Speaker at the ceremony.

There was an array of winners and those "Highly Commended," one of which included manufacturer Nourished, which was recognised as a Manufacturing Innovator. The judges said this organisation had clearly disrupted the market via innovative new product development and additive manufacturing, and they have an exceptionally bright future ahead of them.
