MD Matt Manners said: "I've been blown away by the response in our first year. The calibre of work we've seen has been world-class."

Jamie Lawrence, editor of HRZone.com, who were the event's exclusive media partner, said: "As a judge I found this extremely hard. The rigour applied to engagement efforts and the level of maturity were both incredible."
