Made In Sheffiield a hallmark of excellence - Lord Mandelson
LORD Mandelson also launched the search for a Made in Sheffield award winner - describing the honour as "a hallmark of business excellence".
He attended the first Made in Sheffield awards dinner back in 1998.
"Being here brings back good memories," he said. "What I remember most is the passion and commitment of the business people I met.
"Their pride in Sheffield's past achievements and belief in its potential were inspiring. So it's good to be back to see for myself how much Sheffield has fulfilled that promise and also to launch the search for the Made in Sheffield award winner.
"From the Sheffield cricketers, who established the world's first football club, to the cutting-edge breakthroughs of your world-class universities and the secret recipe for Hendersons Relish - this is a city with revolutionary ideas.
"This award recognises the next generation helping Sheffield compete with the best in the world.
