Amazing Award Trophies

Nearly every industry will have an array of awards open to them recognising both company and individual efforts annually and usually on a grand stage involving black-tie dinners and after parties. From certificates to trophies with medals in between, it is a great achievement to get recognised within your industry which boosts confidence as well as improves profiles and increases business opportunities.

From smaller bespoke awards to the grand national media attention grabbing events held in the glamour spots of London, industry awards are wide and varied and ultimately will climax with the major prize being handed out in front of a blanket of flashing bulbs and busy writing journalists preparing the next mornings headlines.

In this article we wanted to take a look at the trophies themselves and the main one which is handed out – What do they look like, which is the most glamorous and for what industry do they represent.

Here are some amazing award trophies that are handed out every year in the UK:

The Royal Automobile Club’s Dewar Trophy: Celebrates outstanding British technical achievement in the automotive industry. The trophy is awarded only in years in which the Club’s Technical Committee believes that there are contenders of sufficient merit, and the list of previous winners includes some of the greatest names in motoring history. Rover was recognised in 1950 for its work on gas-turbine cars, and Dunlop received the trophy in 1957 for its development of disc brakes as well as tyres for the record-breaking MG EX181.
