CyberFirst Awards Dinner
We kicked off CYBERUK25 in style with a fantastic evening at the CyberFirst Awards 2025, held this year in Manchester. It was a brilliant night of celebration, connection and recognition for the amazing work happening across the UK in cyber education and industry.
​
The event celebrated and acknowledged the hard work and commitment of industry partners, individual supporters, Cyber Bursary students and alumni. It also celebrated 10 years of the CyberFirst programme and the people who make up the team.
Felicity Oswald OBE and Feryal Clark spoke about the future and the need to transform resilience and counter threats in order to make the UK digitally safe and secure.
Among the many inspiring contributions from industry professionals, academics, and CyberFirst Ambassadors, it was the students who truly stood out. Their creativity, technical skill and fresh perspectives were nothing short of exceptional.
​
To top it all off, Kings Priory Digital were honoured to receive the Most Innovative/Novel Supporter Award for our work on Operation Enigma—a true highlight of the evening!​​
Thank you to everyone we connected with on the night, and here’s to more exciting opportunities and collaboration. Although our focus is always on impact rather than recognition the team are incredibly grateful to receive the award from the National Cyber Security Centre.
