Harry, Christian, Gemma and the team hosted a brilliant, packed City AM Awards 2025 event, which reflected and celebrated the people delivering for London as a financial centre and beyond.
The quality of the people and firms at the City AM Awards 2025 speaks volumes. This is now the fulcrum awards event for the City, from a title increasingly owning the narrative for London.
The growth of City AM as a title of meaning and influence has been an extraordinary thing to witness. It is a breakout media success story in a broader environment where a lot of titles have struggled. It has a clear pro-business voice and that all-important feel and editorial tone, which makes it worth your time.
The City AM Awards 2025 judges – including Baroness Helena Morrissey, Mark Kleinman, Martin Gilbert and Bim Afolami – described Chatsworth as “having carved out a serious fintech niche that places them at the heart of some of the biggest issues facing the City and for advising on initiatives to modernise and digitise financial services products and infrastructure”. That’s pretty much Chatsworth in a nutshell. Thank you!
We made the judges’ final list alongside Blick Rothenberg, WPI Strategy, H/Advisors Maitland and Headland, and we were delighted to be in their company. Huge congrats to the awesome team at WPI Strategy, who rightly won out in our category for some brilliant campaign work, from a super smart, specialist team. WPI is the power behind high-profile coalitions and campaigns, including the Covid Recovery Commission and the Retail Jobs Alliance, which amplified the voices of major retailers during challenging market and policy conditions. Serious work, delivered with skill and efficacy.
Another particular highlight was seeing Rolls-Royce scoop the best company award. From a share price eternally languishing around the £4 mark, the pride of Derbyshire has executed an extraordinary turnaround. Our founders hail from Derbyshire, and the firm is a major employer in the county. Nick used to cover Rolls-Royce on his first newspaper job, so seeing the firm going from strength to strength once more was wonderful.
Thank you to the judges and everyone at City AM.
