Press
Release Body: Bigmouthmedia CEO Steve Leach has been named
Regional Director of the Year at a prestigious annual event organised
by the Institute of Directors in Scotland.
Scooping
the prize in his first year as a nominee, the founder of Europe's
largest digital marketing
agency edged ahead of a shortlist of Scotland's best entrepreneurial
talent to walk out a winner from a packed presentation dinner. Accorded
the honour by a judging panel consisting of some of the country's
most influential business figures, the award represents the fourth
major accolade he has picked up in the last 12 months.
"I'm
absolutely delighted. Scottish Awards have always
been very important to us because while we may have become a rapidly
expanding international organisation, our UK headquarters is still
in Edinburgh and we are extremely proud of the roots that made the
company what it is today," said Leach.
Now
in their fourth year, the prizes for IoD Scotland's Director
of the Year Awards were presented at a ceremony in Glasgow's
Crowne Plaza last night.
The
event marks the start of an exciting month for Leach and the bigmouthmedia
team. Already short listed for a raft of major accolades, March
will see the company competing for gongs at the Revolution
Awards, Fast Growth Business Awards and the UK Technology and Innovation
Awards.
