New Awards set to recognise the Top 50 Individuals powering Exeter forward
Exeter is set to hold a new Awards evening this November that is set to be a little bit different from the rest. The Exeter Power 50 will celebrate the exploits, innovation and entrepreneurship of those individuals who have helped to power the reputation, economic, social and cultural success of the city.
The event has been created by David Kirk of Kirk Hills Chartered Accountants and Richard Marsh of the Mill Management Consultancy and is being sponsored by Kitsons Solicitors, Arbuthnot Latham Bank, Hall and Scott Estate Agents, The University of Exeter and Kirk Hills.
From nominations across five categories, 50 people will be identified as having in some way, influenced or made contributions to the greater well being of the city. There will be 5 category winners, with one person being awarded the Power 50 City’s Most Influential Award’ for their extensive efforts.
David Kirk said “These awards are about celebrating the success of the city by recognising those individuals who are the power behind this success. We are looking for nominations for individuals from all aspects of the business and cultural life of the city. Exeter is clearly a very vibrant city on an upwards curve”
The awards will be presented at a red carpet event on 7 November in the magnificent new Forum building at the University of Exeter.
As sponsor and host of the Awards Reception, Event Exeter at the University of Exeter has embraced the Exeter Power 50. Sarah Snow, Head of Event Exeter commented, “We’re thrilled to be sponsoring the Exeter Power 50 in its inaugural year. As well as supporting the forward thinking and innovative vision of the University, the awards align with our goal of supporting and celebrating the local business community. As our flagship new building, the award-winning Forum will make the perfect venue for the Awards Reception and we look forward to welcoming people to this vibrant space”
