All of the judges, from every category, were impressed with the high calibre of applicants and are eager to hear their pitches next week. This year, the judges are from Tata Ltd, New Beacon Group, NatWest, Ideas Patch and its collaborators, as well as the University of Westminster and all anticipate the semi-finals being hard to judge given the exceptional businesses and ideas selected. The judges will definitely have their work cut out!  

For the Lloyd’s Online People’s Vote, International Innovation Services took first place with a whopping 3402 votes, automatically advancing them to the Finals in November! 

Very well done to all our semi-finalists but also to everyone that participated.
