THE finalists have been announced for the PPMA Group Industry Awards 2017.
Organisers of the awards, which are now in their 6th year, said an “impressive” number of entries were received this year. A panel of 10 industry experts chose the finalists in 11 separate categories, which include Innovative Robotic Machinery, Partnership of the Year and the Lifetime Achievement award.
Winners will be announced at the PPMA Group Industry Awards ceremony and gala dinner, which takes place at Birmingham’s National Motorcycle Museum on Tuesday 26 September – the first day of the PPMA Show.
Andrew Mint, CEO of PPMA Group said, “Thanks to an incredibly high standard of entries this year, the judges reported a difficult deliberation process, which is testament to the innovatory nature of our industry.
