CAUSEWAY: Ireland Scotland Business Exchange has released the shortlist for the seventh annual Causeway Awards. The awards, supported by headline sponsor Johnnie Walker Princes Street, celebrate outstanding business achievements across Scotland, Ireland, and Northern Ireland.
The awards will take place on Thursday 5th October at The Assembly Rooms in Edinburgh. 23 businesses have made the shortlist this year, showcasing the vibrant variety of talent on both sides of the Irish Sea.
Deputy Lord Provost of the City of Edinburgh, Lezley Marion Cameron, will be in attendance, as will the Scottish Government’s Minister for Business Trade, Tourism and Enterprise, Richard Lochhead, Consul General of Ireland, Jerry O’Donovan, Vice Consul General, Andrew Wickham Moriarty, and Andrew Kerr OBE, Chief Executive of City of Edinburgh Council.
This year, Causeway is proud to have Cyrenians as the official awards charity partner. Money raised from a raffle on the evening will go toward supporting Cyrenians in their efforts to tackle the causes and consequences of homelessness across Scotland.
Judith O’Leary, Co-chair of Causeway, commented:
“It is inspiring to see all of the remarkable organisations and individuals that have made the shortlist this year, following a rigorous first-round judging process.
“The Causeway Awards shine a light on the wealth of talent and innovation taking place across Scotland and the island of Ireland, and we can’t wait to see them celebrated on 5th October.”
Brigid Whoriskey, Co-chair of Causeway, added:
“We are incredibly proud to present this year’s exceptional shortlist for the Causeway Business Awards. These awards give us the opportunity to recognise hardworking and forward-thinking businesses across Scotland, Ireland and Northern Ireland.
“Partnering with Cyrenians highlights our commitment to giving back to the community. Their invaluable work aligns with the ethos of Causeway Exchange, which not only applauds success but emphasises the importance of making a positive impact in our regions.”
