INTRODUCTION

The Rushlight Awards 2011 were celebrated at a lavish Gala Dinner at Church House Westminster, London on Wednesday 1 February 2012. It was a superb event where the large number of CEOs, directors and technology heads of leading clean technology companies in the UK and Ireland gathered to see who would win the coveted Rushlight Awards, joined by their advisers and investors. 

 

We were most fortunate to have as our guest speaker, Baroness Worthington, the Labour Peer, who addressed the guests in a most personable manner about her current activities, including her patronage of the Weinberg Foundation which promotes the development of thorium and involvement in GLOBE International which encourages the development of environmental legislation across the world.

 

The winners of the awards were as follows:

 

As well as winning the coveted Rushlight Award and having first choice of the in-kind prizes, Onzo Ltd received a 3 minute film created by Green TV on their company and key product which was shown on the night and can be seen here.

 

 

The event was filmed and is planned to be streamed courtesy of Icon Presentations in the near future.

With a substantial in-kind prize system, the event was made even more exciting for the participants and we are most grateful for the generous prizes that have been put forward, totalling in market value terms well in excess of £500,000.  The prize givers were a range of advisers, service providers and products that are of specific relevance to either early stage companies or later stage cleantech companies.
