RSE has won the Rural Champion Award at the inaugural Sunday Times Scotland Fast 50 Awards, one of only five category awards presented on the night. The award recognises our contribution to entrepreneurship, investment and economic growth in rural Scotland.
The award was presented by Chris van der Kuyl CBE, one of Scotland’s leading entrepreneurs, at a networking and awards dinner held in the Great Hall at Edinburgh Castle on Wednesday the 4th of November. Our Chief Executive, Stephen Slessor, attended on behalf of the business, joining leaders from across Scotland’s business community.
The recognition follows RSE being named on the Sunday Times Scotland Fast 50 list earlier this year, which celebrates Scotland’s fastest-growing private businesses. From our roots in the Highlands, RSE has continued to expand, investing in our people, skills and facilities across Scotland, England and Wales. We have also established a presence internationally, opening our first US office in Milwaukee in 2025, marking the beginning of our journey into North America.
The Rural Champion Award reflects the dedication, expertise and hard work of colleagues across the UK and beyond, whose efforts continue to drive our success.
