Special Awards


SMI runs two awards each year funded by a trust fund set up in memory of Mr Donald Maxwell, the founder director‐general of SMI’s predecessor organisation, BMEC. In 2016 the AMSI Business Person of the Year Award was presented to Mr Paul Ridout, Executive Chairman of OSIL, who retired from the AMSI Council at the end of 2016 after many years of service. The Student Award went to Kate Devereux who is studying for MEng in Ship Science at the University of Southampton for her topical paper Investigation into the suitability of composite materials for the construction of marine propellers and was presented to her by SMI’s Chairman at the AGM Luncheon.
