Howells was recently delighted to have the honour of sponsoring the fourth annual Future Entrepreneur Awards to celebrate the success of some of Cardiff’s brightest young business brains.
The event, presented by the University of Glamorgan and Cardiff Vale and College, and held at Cardiff City’s Hall, hosted the great and good of Cardiff’s media and business communities.
Those walking home with this year’s awards in the higher education category were the video production company Cardinal Films, who pipped runners up Sarah Millman with her web comic Kairos to the prize and Anita Nemkyova with her self-titled fashion label.
In the further education category first prize was scooped by Pri-Pod, a project to produce specialist photography tripods for wheelchair users. The two runners up were Delicia Do Brazil and Helping Hands.
The awards were established by the University of Glamorgan in 2009 to encourage entrepreneurship and enterprise among the university students and graduates in Wales. The deserving winners were the recipients of the much coveted Future Entrepreneur Award trophy along with a cheque for £1,000.
Mark Hobbs, managing partner at Howells, said: “As a firm we are delighted to support the Future Entrepreneur Awards which recognise and reward entrepreneurial spirit in today’s youth. The night was a major success we were delighted to be able to help.”
