IJInvestor Awards 2021 – Company Shortlist
IJGlobal is delighted today to be revealing the shortlist for the companies section of the IJInvestor Awards 2021 – presented across the EMEA region, Americas and overall trophies for a combination of the 2.
The independent panel of judges met last week to weigh up a record number of submissions and over the course of 2 hours, debated the shortlist and submitting their secret votes online.
A couple of judges were unable to attend Judgment Day, but they submitted their votes without the benefit of discussion and – as always – the relevant people were recused when they had a vested interest in a category.
We will be hosting a physical awards night on the evening of Wednesday 8 December at Pan Pacific Hotel, London, and look forward to seeing a good number of the industry in the room that night.
