NCF were thrilled to sponsor the Cyber University of the Year Award at the 2025 National Cyber Awards. Congratulations to the finalists, and the winner of our sponsored award – Aston University Cyber Security Innovation Research Centre.
Awards like this reinforce that the ultimate enabler for us is our people. We need to ensure there are strong foundations in place to bring through the next generation of cyber talent. It’s not about competing for that talent, it’s how we collectively invest in it and grow it together
As the champion of the UK tech sector, we are huge supporters of The National Cyber Awards. These awards shine a spotlight on the incredible work done right across Government and Industry to improve our resilience and keep our public services and economy safe and secure
“The National Cyber Awards highlight some of exceptional achievements in cyber across the country. As the sponsor of the MOD award, I am delighted to celebrate the hard work of Defence people whose work in cyber is often kept away from the spotlight, rarely published publicly and is critical to defending and building resilience against the cyber threat.”
“Recognising the part that everyone plays in combating cyber crime and its effects on us all is vital in helping us protect both UK businesses and citizens. I am pleased to support The National Cyber Awards as an initiative in helping to achieve this.”
“It’s important that we recognise the hard work from across the industry that goes into understanding and tackling the ever changing threats that we face. Events like these, which we’re delighted to be a part of, help showcase the incredible skill and talent keeping us safe and inspire future generations.”
“NPCC are delighted to sponsor these awards, recognising the amazing work, innovation and collaboration across the sector. We live more and more of our lives online and these awards showcase the vast range of activities ongoing to keep us safe in the virtual world.”
“The National Cyber Awards allow us to recognise the exceptional work undertaken every day to tackle cybercrime and increase the UK’s resilience against this threat.”
“Cyber resiliency depends on a continuous pipeline of critical cyber security skills. The UK Cyber Security Council, as the self-regulating body for the cyber security profession, is proud to be building skills for today and in the future. We are aligned with the UK’s mission of creating one of the safest places to work and do business online. Sponsoring the National Cyber Awards is a testament to our commitment to this cyber security agenda.”
Our sponsors are the heartbeat of this event; quite simply, without their support, The National Cyber Awards would not exist today. Supporting this event enables us to dismantle the traditional barriers to entry, maintaining a completely free nomination process, ensuring that every deserving voice has a chance to be heard, regardless of their resources. Because of them, we are able to execute an event of this prestige, creating a world-class stage to recognise and give back to the community that inspires us every day.
