We extend a huge congratulations to the winners and runners up of the Business School Partnership Awards 2020.

The Partnership awards recognises the exceptional work of staff and students who truly put the Leeds Partnership into action. This year there were over 250 nominations across twelve categories given to teaching staff, professional staff and students.

This year Anna France received the overall Partnership Award – this award is decided by the shortlisting panel and given to the person who has been deemed to have had an exceptional impact overall and someone who has been nominated broadly, or has been particularly active on a specific issue. Anna had six very strong nominations across several categories praising her incredible hard work and dedication to the Nurturing Talent Mentor Scheme.

Our Faculty winners will go through to a final shortlisting stage for a chance to win their category at the University Partnership Awards.

Congratulations to everyone!
