The FIT Show and Windows Active are thrilled to announce the return of the 30 Under 30 campaign, designed to celebrate the rising stars of the industry.
Following its successful debut at FIT Show 2022, this initiative once again aims to recognise and reward the next generation of key players – those who are pushing boundaries, driving innovation, and making a real difference in their field.
From product design and development to marketing, HR, apprenticeships, installation, and management, we want to highlight the individuals who are excelling in all areas of the sector. Whether they are fitters or installers, innovators on the shop floor, trainees, managers, or directors, we invite you to nominate the industry’s future leaders.
FIT Show event director, Nickie West comments: “We’re thrilled to be bringing our 30 Under 30 campaign, in conjunction with Windows Active, back for FIT Show 2025 after its hugely successful debut at FIT Show 2022. We’re hoping to build on the success of the launch campaign, which saw a high number and broad mix of entries.
“FIT show is proud to shine a spotlight on the next generation of superstars. We have long championed the importance of encouraging grassroots, attracting and nurturing new talent and helping to bridge the skills gap – 30 Under 30 allows us to do just that! I’m excited to see this year’s entries, and to announce and reward the final 30 at FIT Show 2025.”
