Excerpts from this press release:


Eighteen of Yorkshire and Humber’s most innovative organisations have beaten off stiff competition to be short listed in the prestigious Innovator 09 Awards.
The six awards, carrying a £3,000 prize, are aimed at recognising those companies and individuals in Yorkshire and Humber who have embraced innovation and developed, alone or in partnership, new ideas, products, technologies or ways of working in order to improve their business.
University departments and facilities that are involved with industrial collaborations were also invited to enter as they too work to overcome the challenges of today’s increasingly competitive marketplace.
...
Innovation Catalyst Award, sponsored by Institute of Directors, will go to an individual or organisation that is a catalyst for innovation, and has been instrumental in contributing to the innovation culture in the region.
...
NTI Leeds Metropolitan University is home to the region’s first co working space which supports innovation for digital entrepreneurs, fledgling businesses and those thinking of starting a business.
...


Congratulations to Linda Broughton and her team!
