Nexxus Scotland

Annual Nexxus Life Science Awards

For further information on this year's Awards including categories, entry criteria and entry forms see Nexxus Life Science Awards 2011.

The Nexxus Life Science Awards were established for a number of reasons :-

• To celebrate life science research excellence, the continued investments being made in creating world class research facilities and successful company growth in - originally - the West of Scotland and now, since the setting up of a second Nexxus network hub in Edinburgh - the East of Scotland also
• To recognise the contribution of life sciences to Scotland in terms of direct and indirect economic benefit to the area; resultant improvements in the health of the nation; the enhancement of the area's international reputation and its regeneration through growth of the high tech life science sector
• To encourage the life sciences sector to be all it can be in the future

The first Nexxus Life Science Awards were made in 2005 and such was the response that Nexxus has presented these awards on an annual basis ever since.  Awards are made in four categories in the East and the West with an additional award being open only to organisations based in East of Scotland/Edinburgh city Region in respect of successful collaboration.  

For details of previous Nexxus Life Science Award winners see 2005 winners, 2006 winners, 2007 winners, 2008 winners, 2009 winners and 2010 winners.
