The British Ex-Forces in Business Awards is a flagship event that celebrates the achievements of military veterans and reservists in their second careers, and the value they bring to organisations across the UK. The awards bring together business leaders and the Armed Forces community to recognise innovation, leadership, and impact across industries.

We are delighted that Ian Hirst, Cyber Threat Services Partner at Talan, has been nominated for Innovator of the Year, recognising his contribution to advancing cyber capability and thought leadership in an increasingly complex threat landscape.

Best of luck to all of this year’s finalists - we’re looking forward to celebrating with you in June.
