英国考文垂 - 在2021年10月的《科学商业会议》上，英国涂料联合会首席执行官汤姆·鲍特尔（Tom Bowtell）被授予公共部门/慈善/贸易协会领导奖。由PZ Cussons赞助的该奖项庆祝了显着的领导力和对科学领域的重大贡献。

组织《科学生意》会议的史蒂夫·贝内特（Steve Bennett）评论说：“颁发了科学领导力奖，以强调跨科学，创新和商业的重要领导力。In the public sector/charity/trade association sector, the judges were delighted to recognise Tom Bowtell’s work over the last 18 months in not only leading the British Coatings Federation to support its members during the pandemic and the onset of Brexit, but in his industry-wide leadership across the UK coatings and chemical industries, most notably battling the wider implications of UK REACH. Tom’s work in ensuring that the potential costs and significant challenges to industry supply chains were communicated, recognised and considered has been exemplary, and as a result, the judges felt unanimously that Tom would be a very worthy recipient of this award.”

鲍特尔补充说：“我很荣幸代表BCF获得该奖项。我们的团队在英国脱欧和考赛德（Brewit and Covid）的挑战时期为成员提供了一项出色的工作，我们成功地超越了我们的体重，因为该行业对政府，非政府组织和学术界的公众声音。现在，我们期待着制定比例的化学法规，以刺激英国的制造业和创新，并推动该行业的可持续性议程，并在2050年之前净零承诺，并且更直接的目标是看到75％的剩余装饰量与今天的2％相比，到2030年之前，油漆重新使用，回收或再制造。”
