TheBusinessDesk.com launches The Rainmaker Awards

THEBUSINESSDESK.COM is delighted to launch The Rainmaker Awards, in partnership with Out There Events, which will recognise the achievement, innovation and excellence of the region’s corporate finance community.
Unlike any other awards programme, the shortlisted teams and deals will be picked by the deals community, who will then vote online to pick the winners.
A dinner will take place at the Hilton Hotel in Manchester on May 22, where there will be live interviews with the key players, providing a credible and genuine commentary of activity over the preceding 12 months.
A new website has been launched today at http://www.therainmakerawards.co.uk
Chris Barry, editor of TheBusinessDesk.com in the North West, said: “We’re passionate about being the voice of the regional business and professional community. In the run-up to launching The Rainmaker Awards we’ve conducted extensive research among the deals community about what they want from an event.
“The Rainmaker Awards will be a genuine and meaningful reflection of the achievements of what we know is the most vibrant, innovative and skilled professional community in the regions.”
Awards will be made in nine categories, while the overall Rainmaker will be selected on the evening.
The categories are:
Legal Team of the Year
Corporate Finance Team of the Year
