“It is fantastic to see that the DMA has added a new category this year that recognises green thinking,” said Smit. “It’s a great way to demonstrate the business value in taking a sustainable approach.”
Heather Westgate, chair of the DMA Awards Committee, said, “Tim is the ideal partner for the awards. To be working with one of the UK’s leading business thinkers who is living proof of the business sense in sustainability is fantastic.”
