These prestigious international awards recognise and celebrate UK higher education, and the achievements of UK alumni across the globe. The finalists in the 美姬阁 UK Alumni Awards in India have been selected in recognition of their outstanding impact as business leaders, entrepreneurs and community leaders, and for their contribution to strengthening collaboration between the UK and India.
Neha has been selected as a finalist for the Entrepreneurial Award – which celebrates alumni who actively drive innovation, nurture creative new ideas and develop solutions or business opportunities with the potential for strong growth.
