The Maserati 100 Returns
by Startacus Admin
Know any UK philanthropists, investors, mentors, advisors, and entrepreneurs who are supporting the next generation of startup founders? If so nominate them via The Maserati 100 awards.
Luxury Italian car manufacturer, Maserati, and the Centre for Entrepreneurs this week launched the second annual Maserati 100 index - a search to find 100 of Britain's most successful philanthropists, investors, mentors and advisors, and ascending entrepreneurs who are supporting the next generation of founders.
The Maserati 100 recognises entrepreneurs who have given their time, energy and resources to supporting young entrepreneurs and Startup founders. The awardees are nominated by any member of the public who wishes to put forward a candidate and voting is now open.
Startacus co-founder Alastair Cameron who was recognised in the current Maserati 100 recalls the impact it had:
“I was of course delighted to be included in the Maserati 100. Being recognised via Startacus was a real shot in the arm to us, and the pat on the back, encouragement and coverage we needed to help push forward in our mission to deliver Startup and Entrepreneurial support, advice and inspiration to self starters everywhere. Of course being on a list that also included some very famous UK entrepreneurs added extra credibility! However, it was fantastic to simply be listed alongside a whole host of startup champions and entrepreneurs - people who are committed and dedicated to giving support and guidance to others.”
This year's Nominations can now be made via www.themaserati100.co.uk and entries will be accepted until 14th December. The index will then be curated by a panel of experts including previous Maserati 100 awardees and the Centre's chairman and Maserati ambassador, Luke Johnson.
