How To: Write an Award-Winning MiMA Nomination
With MiMA '26 launching and nominations soon to open up, join pro-manchester's very own future-pro Committee Chair, Herbie Hursthouse and their panel of previous Made in Manchester Award Winners and Judges this September, to find out how YOU can write that award-winning nomination that'll make you stand out from the crowd and guarantee your place on our MiMA '26 Shortlist.
Within this session you can expect shared personal journeys, challenges and achievements from our previous MiMA Winners, as well as lots of discussion on how they’ve taken charge of their careers early-on and how MiMA provided them with the springboard they needed to jump-start their careers, sharing handy tips on how it can help you too along the way.
And just in case that wasn't enough, we also have some of our expert MiMA Judges joining us! Sharing their insight on what makes a good MiMA entry and what qualities they look for in entrants when deciding who they will crown the next future leaders of Manchester.
So, whether you're considering entering MiMA '26's nominations yourself or you want to write a stellar nomination for a friend or colleague that will guarantee them a place on that shortlist, get yourself booked on to this event TODAY via the link above.
