Wales Business Insider Property Awards

On the 19th April this year iCreate was extremely proud to sponsor an award at the Wales Business Insider Property Awards at City Hall in Cardiff. The award, for Retail Agent of the Year, was won by EJ Hales for the second year running, and we congratulate them on this great success. On the evening we were joined by some major players in the Welsh property sector, including our very own Jonathan Givelin from London and Oriental Homes, as well as Scott Gibbs from Liberty, Susan Young from Westmark and Mike Bruce from Atisreal. We'd like to thank the team at the Insider for making the event possible, and we look forward to next year's event.

iCreate has recently been included in the Western Mail's annual 'Hot 100' listing - a definitive guide to the top 100 start-up businesses in Wales. To be eligible, businesses must have been founded after 2001, have a turnover of more than £100k, and the founders must still play a key role in the day-to-day running of the business. Following this, First Minister for Wales, Rhodri Morgan, and Andrew Davies, Minister for the Department of Enterprise, Innovation and Networks, visited iCreate to find out about the company's growth and development - a high profile visit that recognises the success of the company over recent months.

And then, to her delight, managing director Dawn Lyle has been invited to sit on the board of Swansea Futures, an organisation established by the Welsh Assembly Government and Swansea City Council to promote Swansea throughout the UK and Europe.
