Linklaters proudly sponsors Women of the Year Awards for fourth year running

Linklaters has announced that it has sponsored the Women of the Year Awards 2025 for the fourth year in a row, celebrating the achievements of exceptional women across the globe.

The event brought together 450 remarkable women, each recognised for making significant contributions within their industries and communities.

Linklaters’ Pioneering Woman of the Year Award was presented to Jaz Rabadia MBE, sustainability leader and advocate for women in STEM by Aedamar Comiskey, Linklaters’ Senior Partner and Chair.

Aedamar Comiskey commented: “A terrific afternoon celebrating many talented and inspiring women. I was delighted to present Jaz with the Linklaters’ Pioneering Woman of the Year Award. A standout winner not only recognised for her impressive contribution to sustainability but also as a transformational leader inspiring more women to pursue their ambitions in STEM.”

On receiving the Award, Jaz Rabadia MBE said: “I feel so honoured to be recognised as Pioneering Woman of the Year. I never set out to win awards, I set out to make things better and push for a more sustainable future. My journey has taken me from supermarket shop floors to coffee shops and all the way to corporate boardrooms. Along the way, I’ve seen how sustainability can transform not just businesses, but lives.

This recognition isn’t just about my work in the sector, it’s about showing others what’s possible when passion meets purpose. I hope it inspires more women to step into STEM and sustainability careers, knowing that their skills and leadership are urgently needed to shape a better future.”
