The team were also on hand to pick up awards for investee company, Carcinotech, whose CEO Ishani Malhotra won the Entrepreneur of the Year Award with the company winning in the Best EIS Investee Company category.

Executive Director of SIS Ventures Arran Dewar commented: "We were thrilled to be recognised alongside the many impressive winners on the night, and to be 'highly commended' is a credit to the exemplary work our small team has achieved in the last year.

"It was also an honour to collect two awards on behalf of one of our impactful portfolio companies, Carcinotech and its founder and CEO, Ishani Malhotra."
