The London Stock Exchange Group has thrown its weight behind a new awards ceremony that recognises next-generation talent among businesses from India and around the world.

ELITE, the London Stock Exchange Group's business support and capital raising programme, will present the first-ever 'ELITE Rising Star Award' at this year's 21st Century Icon Awards 2018.

The awards, launched in 2017 by Indian-origin entrepreneur Tarun Gulati, will be held in London in September this year to celebrate the success of budding business talent.

"Through the ELITE programme, we will connect with dynamic entrepreneurs, helping them to keep on growing and compete on the world stage. Ambitious companies around the world can nominate themselves to avail of this fantastic opportunity," said Gulati.

Squared Watermelon Ltd, which hosts the 21st Century Icon Awards, said the winner of the new award will give a "rising star" business the chance to join a unique fundraising platform in Europe.
