Bridewell Wins ‘Thriving Together’ Award at Heathrow Business Summit

Published 10 December 2024

We’re immensely proud to share that, we won the top award at the Heathrow Business Summit - their ‘Thriving Together’ award. 

The event featured a range of Heathrow’s strategic suppliers, senior representatives, and local SMEs, who all came together to discuss ways in which they can help the airport continue to grow sustainably. The Business Summit also provided an opportunity to promote economic growth in Heathrow’s local community and shared insight into the critical role suppliers play in the airport’s operation and sustainable supply chain. 

After hearing from a range of Heathrow’s key stakeholders and other suppliers, Helen Elsby, Heathrow’s Chief Solutions Officer, and Isabelle Liu, Heathrow’s Supply Chain Manager, recognised the key contributors supporting Heathrow’s ongoing commitment to a thriving supply chain through their awards. 

The event’s final award was the ‘Thriving Together’ award, which recognises the supplier relationship that best supports the mutual growth and success of Heathrow and the supplier. 

“At Heathrow, we always want to work with local SMEs as we are truly committed to supporting our local community. The ‘Thriving Together’ award is a particularly important one for me,” said Helen Elsby. “It’s rare to see businesses scale in the way Bridewell has since they first joined as one of our suppliers – I hope this will help show other businesses that they too can thrive at Heathrow.”

“As Bridewell have grown over the years, they have continued to help us to thrive at Heathrow. The contributions they make to our safe and secure operations provide me with reassurance, and it was a pleasure to recognise them with this award. They truly are an integral part of the extended team here at Heathrow”

“Our long-standing relationship with Heathrow has always been an important one,” added Anthony Young, CEO at Bridewell. “As a critical part of the UK's infrastructure and a global transport hub, helping keep Heathrow running safely and securely is core to Bridewell’s purpose. Heathrow has been a really important factor in Bridewell’s growth over the last 6 years, and our relationship with them has helped us to become a leading cyber security company across critical infrastructure. 

“Everyone in Bridewell has a huge amount of pride for the work we have supported at Heathrow across a number of programmes. Being one of their suppliers truly has helped us ‘thrive together’. We’re grateful to have received the reward and look forward to continuing our relationship with the airport.”
