We鈥檝e been nominated in the 鈥楨ducation Innovator of the Year鈥� and 鈥楥reative Industries Innovator of the Year鈥� (for culinary arts) categories in this year鈥檚 Innovation Awards.

Since they began in 2021, the Innovation Awards have shone a light on the businesses, organisations and individuals who are dedicated to innovation in their field of expertise, nationwide.

Voting has now closed, but the nominations reflect the trail-blazing, future-focus of our work from across the University.

Rooted in the West Midlands, the awards were started by the Technology Supply Chain, a fast-growing UK network that aims to connect manufacturers, life sciences and technology firms to funding, collaborations and growth opportunities.

Each category is born out of a desire to showcase and celebrate both progress in innovation, and those who support and make that progress possible. They are open to anyone, and nominations can be generated internally or come from outside the organisation. They comprise of four main categories:

The Innovators: working in the creative arts, construction, defence, education, engineering, life sciences, manufacturing, sustainability and technology sectors.
Individual Innovators: Female, Male and Young Innovator of the Year awards.
Innovation Champions: recognising those who support companies with innovation.
Innovation Thought-leaders: applauding those who facilitate the space, finance and platforms for innovation to thrive.

New for 2025 is the 鈥楨ducation Innovator of the Year鈥� award and we鈥檙e delighted to be an inaugural nominee in a category that recognises the work of schools, colleges, universities and training providers, in harnessing innovative techniques to upskill the business leaders and entrepreneurs of the future.

The award criteria for our categories are:

Celebrating creativity with impact, this category recognises innovation in fields such as design, media, fashion, gaming, and the arts. The winner brings fresh perspectives, new formats, or inventive storytelling to life鈥攑ushing the boundaries of creative expression while contributing to the UK鈥檚 cultural and economic vitality.

"The Innovation Awards recognise, celebrate and reward those amazing companies, individuals and organisations that are dedicated to making things better - everything from cutting energy and minimising waste to creating new products and lifting the environment with artwork. We are very excited about the 2025 Innovation Awards."
