Security & Safety Entrepreneur Awards
The Security & Safety Entrepreneur Awards (SSEAs) recognise and celebrate entrepreneurs in start-ups and established businesses who are making significant contributions to the field of protecting people, organisations, places and other assets; keeping them secure and safe. These awards are open to any entrepreneur or entrepreneurial venture that focuses on security and safety in any sector, after all security and safety are ubiquitous.
The criteria for these awards are based on extensive research on key factors that contribute to and characterise outstanding performance. The SSEAs are being set up in collaboration with key industry associations and groups, and were started with the help of our Founding Supporters, the Banks Foundation, British Security Industry Association (BSIA) and Skills for Security.
Our Core Values
Independent
The SSEAs are independent. You don’t have to be a member of an association or any groups to be involved – anyone working in any area of security and safety entrepreneurism can enter a relevant category. The only requirement is having shown outstanding entrepreneurial performance.
Credible
The criteria for each award category have been carefully considered and based on extensive research across different areas and by looking at how outstanding performance is recognised and judged in other fields. There are strict criteria for who is appointed as a judge and for ensuring that judging decisions are fair and impartial.
