Each Year Morningside Pharmaceuticals are proud to sponsor a number of business and community excellence awards.
These cover a wide range of topics from innovation, to business leadership, to highlighting women in business and celebrating entrepreneurship.
We also support various Leicester Mercury awards, which honour excellence in the community and include the annual Heroes of Leicestershire Awards, The Carer of the Year Awards and The Education Awards.
This spring we’re proud to be supporting the Leicester Mercury’s Innovation Awards, of which we’re headline sponsors, and the annual Business Awards.
Our Chief Executive Dr Nik Kotecha OBE said: “We’re delighted to be supporting this year’s Innovation Awards because one of the keys to any successful business is continuous improvement in line with customers’ needs. Innovation embodies the improvement of something that has come before, and it’s the companies that do this best, which are the ones that will ultimately have sustained success.
“This often means considering measured risks, such as taking a holistic approach to the whole business while ensuring investment is made in people and training. Ultimately the businesses which seek to make continuous improvements, close the biggest gaps and identify the newest opportunities.”
We’re also proud sponsors of the Business Entrepreneur of the Year category for the Leicester Mercury Business Awards 2019, which Dr Kotecha explains is close to our hearts at Morningside.
He said: “Our company was founded in the 1990s through an entrepreneur’s dream of making quality healthcare an affordable and accessible reality throughout the world.
“Since then we have grown from a garage start-up, to a small to medium sized business, to a large corporate, which is now one of the 100 largest companies in Leicestershire.
“We’re delighted to sponsor this award because it recognises the achievements of other entrepreneurs in the county and provides them with a platform to celebrate their achievements.
“Good luck to all of the nominees, in our eyes you’re all winners!”
