She said: “As a former BYPY winner and last year’s recipient of the President’s Award, I’ve experienced first-hand the incredible impact that GBYPY can have on the growth and development of young professionals.
“We are once again proud to sponsor the GBYPY Awards, as we strongly believe in the importance of recognising and celebrating the outstanding talent across our region.
“These individuals are not only driving innovation and excellence in their fields but also making a meaningful contribution to our regional community and economy.”
