Over 200 members, guests and nominees gathered in the Cholmondeley room / the terrace of the House of Lords on Tuesday 12th December for The Institute for Collaborative Working's annual Collaboration awards sponsored by BSI. This year the Awards evening drew a record number of entries across 9 categories. Lord Evans of Watford, Chairman of the Institute and head judge commented "The number and calibre of submissions this year far exceed the expectations of ICW and the Judges reflecting the growing focus on collaborative working as a key factor for industry and Government reinforced by the publication of the International standard - ISO 44001 - earlier this year which has significantly raised the profile of this topic." Les Pyle "The shortlisted organisations came from a wide spectrum of organisations providing a challenging task for the judges; all of those short listed should be delighted to be joining over 200 attendees to celebrate their achievements." - Les Pyle, CEO ICW. | ![]() ![]() |
