A record-breaking year for the Sustainability
Leaders Awards
This year's awards are already shaping up to be
the best ever, with a record breaking entry list,
brand new sponsors and a fantastic new venue to
accommodate more guests than ever.
Entry-level hit an all-time high this year, with
more entries from more unique organisations
than in any year since the awards began. And a
record year for entries means an incredibly strong
shortlist for the Sustainability Leaders Awards 2013
organised by Sustainable Business and edie.net
This year's list includes multi-national corporations, retailers, manufacturers, luxury brands, SMEs, public sector organisations,
Universities and more, all with one thing in common - they have demonstrated true leadership and innovation and are making
genuine progress in embedding sustainability throughout their operations.
The winners will be announced at the awards ceremony and dinner on November 21st across the 15 categories, which, for
the second year, includes the IEMA Graduate of the Year Award.
With the exception of the Sustainability Leader: Consultancy award, all of the categories are judged by our esteemed and
prestigious panel, chaired by Environment Agency chairman Lord Chris Smith.
The shortlist and winner of the consultancy category is determined by a piece of third-party research commissioned by edie
and conducted by market research specialists Accent - the sponsor of this category. More than 600 consultancy customers
were surveyed about their experience of consultancy procurement over the past 12 months and were asked to vote for and
rank their top consultancies. It means that this category is the only award that is voted for by the customer.
