Awards Competition Invitation
Good Morning all,
We are pleased to announce that the RISE Awards are back for a second year showcasing and rewarding the most pioneering initiatives in construction and engineering across four key strands; Research, Innovation, Sustainability and Enterprise. Organised by the same team who brought you the 2016 Constructing Excellence Yorkshire and Humber awards, we are inviting applications now for new and innovative products, technologies, processes, projects and schemes. If it challenges the status quo, we want to hear about it!
Hosted by the Leeds Sustainability Institute at Leeds Beckett University, the RISE Awards are completely free to enter and submissions are encouraged from both individuals and companies working in the built environment across 12 different categories. With awards for industry leaders in energy efficiency, exemplary research, BIM, retrofit, social sustainability and more up for grabs we are sure there is a category for you! Previous winners have come from a vast array of environments, specialisms, companies and backgrounds – what matters to us is that entrants display the passion and dedication to do things better, pushing our industry forward and driving up standards.
The closing date for submissions is 1st September with the winners being revealed on 15th September at our exclusive presentation evening at the Met Hotel in Leeds.
A DIFFERENT KIND OF AWARDS CEREMONY
- No Time limitations: For these awards there are no minimum requirements on when or where the initiative was designed, developed or implemented. Our only stipulation is that you have to be able to demonstrate ongoing positive impact today.
- No Geographical limitations: Don’t get us wrong, we are proud of our Yorkshire heritage but Leeds Sustainability Institute is an entity with a global reach that was founded on the principles of inclusivity and collaboration. With so much origination and invention going on around the world, we think it only right that our awards should reflect this – bringing people from across the globe together to connect!
- No forms:Whilst we enjoy nothing more than reading your entries, we thought it was time to give our entrants the opportunity to use a little bit of their imagination and inventiveness. All we are asking for by way of a submission is a one to two page poster using text, images and charts – let’s see your creativity and let those visual presentation skills run wild!
- A good mix of people:We’ve all been to awards ceremonies filled with our competitors. Now imagine if every person in the room was a potential partner instead of a rival. With our unique mix of private companies, government bodies, academics, researchers and community groups the possibilities for forging new business opportunities over a glass of wine are very real. So bring your business cards and come and meet your new collaborators!
- Relaxed and Informal: Anyone who has ever attended our CEYH awards know we love the chance to roll out the red carpet here at CKE. However, the beauty of our RISE Awards is in their simplicity. The awards themselves are a much more informal and intimate occasion where the glitz is kept to a minimum and the focus solely on the promotion of entries and the people behind them. This coupled with knowledgeable hosting, great food and even better company makes the RISE awards the perfect forum to entertain your associates, show off a little and engage in lively conversation with a room full of professional experts.
- Connect with us: The Leeds Sustainability Institute is always looking for external partners for its world class research. This event is the perfect opportunity to show us what you can do. Come along and talk to our team!
