Innovation Awards Headline Sponsor

LeicestershireLive Innovation Awards 2023

Many congratulations to all of the nominees and winners from the LeicestershireLive Innovation Awards 2023, held at the National Space Centre, in Leicester.

Each year the flagship awards seek to celebrate the very best technology, services, digital advances, and creative thinking that the region has to offer.

As a Headline Sponsor, our CEO Tim Brady was delighted to present the Innovation in Med-Tech & Life Sciences Award on behalf of Morningside.

Medicines and technology discovered in our region are helping disabled people around their homes, and tech used in operating theatres and hospitals.

The judges were looking for innovators whose ideas have made an impact nationally and internationally, but also people making small changes that are making their businesses more competitive, productive, and profitable.

This award is particularly special for Morningside because we’re immensely proud of our rich history of launching a wide-range of new niche generic molecules, which offer new novel ways for patients to take their medicine.

We’re also proud to be based in Loughborough, near to the UK’s first Life Sciences Opportunities Zone (Charnwood Campus), which demonstrates the county’s rich heritage, as a national leader in Life Sciences.  

 

Chinese New Year Celebrations

Chinese New Year

To celebrate the Chinese New Yew Year – The Year of the Rabbit, a delicious Chinese lunch was provided for all employees at our Leicester and Loughborough offices.

Lunar New Year, also known as Chinese New Year, is celebrated over multiple days and marks the beginning of the coming 12 months on the traditional lunisolar calendar.

The Rabbit is the fourth animal in the zodiac sequence of 12, and is seen as the luckiest!

Here are some photos of our teams tucking-in to some tasty Chinese treats.

Check out these beautiful painted pots created by our colleagues to mark the three festivals of harvest, which celebrate the winter harvest season in the Indian sub-continent.

The Rang De Matka (pot painting competition) took place to recognise the Lohri, Makar Sankranti and Pongal festivals of thanksgiving, which are cultural events that are important to many of our people.

Well done to everyone who submitted an entry, they are all true works of art.

Diwali Celebrations at Morningside

Lovely celebration of the Festival of Lights, where colleagues came together to enjoy Diwali at Morningside.

As part of our commitment to celebrating all cultural festivals which are important to our colleagues, we treated everyone in our offices to a traditional Indian lunch.

We also set our colleagues the challenge of entering a rangoli competition!

For those who don’t know; rangoli is a traditional artform originating from the Indian sub-continent, where patterns are created using powders on the floor or table-top – particularly during festivals and celebrations.

For many, rangoli symbolises happiness, positivity and liveliness, which are all important qualities for Morningside and our people.

Check out these excellent rangoli entries, and thank you to every colleague who took the time to enter.

2022 Awards Sponsorship

LeicestershireLive Business Awards and East Midlands Business Masters Awards

Huge congratulations to all of the nominees and winners at the LeicestershireLive Business Awards and the East Midlands Business Masters Awards.

LeicestershireLive Business Awards

At Morningside, our business has been built and grown on a strategy focused on improving the patient experience, and offering greater choice.

We develop and launch a wide-range of niche generic medicines, which offer new novel ways for patients to take their medication. This led to Morningside winning the Excellence in Science & Technology Award at last year’s LeicestershireLive Business Awards 2021.

The Morningside Team were back at this year’s ceremony, led by our Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Cliff Fung (pictured), who gave away the Entrepreneur of the Year category.

East Midlands Business Masters Awards

Working with communities in the UK and globally to bring them together, and improving the quality of life of people living there, has been at the heart of Morningside’s story over the last 30 years.

As part of this commitment to giving back to communities and society as a whole, we were proud to be the sponsor of the Community Impact category at the TheBusinessDesk.com’s East Midlands Business Masters Awards 2022.

The category honoured those businesses which have gone above and beyond to be good corporate citizens, and have made a tangible difference to the communities where their people and customers live and work.

It was a particularly humble night for the Morningside Team because  in 2021 at the same awards, we won the ‘Investment’ category for our strong Research & Development (R&D)  focus and product pipeline.

Congratulation to all of the winners and nominees at both awards ceremonies!

Award Win for Our COO Monica!
