King’s Award presentation marks record year for one of Birmingham’s oldest manufacturers C. Brandauer & Co Ltd Derrick Anderson CBE, the Lord Lieutenant for the West Midlands. CEO Rowan Crozier MBE told the 61-strong workforce and high-profile guests that the accolade had helped them secure more than £1.2m of new orders, including its first 4- module progression tool, a first tooling design advisory contract and a first scalable e-motor lamination stack bonding tool – the latter ideal for exploiting electrification. Together, they will help the Newtown-based business touch £9.5m in annual sales, with the increasingly realistic target of achieving £11m in 2025/26. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eNQYcEJq

Here is our final #WIChamberMonth video!

Absolutely LOVE how 2024 is turning into the year of women’s sports. Here are just a few highlights thus far: 1. The Women’s March Madness Final Four game between Iowa and UConn had the largest audience of any basketball game in ESPN history. 2. The Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) has 1,100 sponsorship deals, creating a 25% increase from previous years. 3. At the end of 2023, the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) secured a $240 million domestic TV sponsorship deal with CBS, ESPN, Amazon, and Scipps. This deal is 40 times larger than previous agreement. 4. According to financial analysts at Deloitte, elite women’s sports will generate $1.28 billion in 2024 - this is an increase of 300% from three years ago. 5. Selfish plug - Dallas is now going to have a professional women’s soccer team called Dallas Trinity FC and they will be playing in the Cotton Bowl Stadium! (Season Membership Deposit secured) I’m very excited to continue to see the growth in women’s sports and to see how these elite athletes are impacting the next generation. #EqualPay #CaitlinClark #DallasTrinityFC #Gatorade #LPGA #NWSL
