ABOUT THE EVENT
The Federation of Piling Specialists (FPS) Awards celebrate the outstanding achievements of individuals and companies within the ground engineering industry.
Celebrating 60 years of geotechnical excellence, this special anniversary event will take place at a new luxury venue for the Federation; the 5-star Hilton London Bankside hotel.
Delegates are invited to indulge in a drinks and canapé reception before enjoying a sumptuous three course meal in the hotel’s grand ballroom. The event will be hosted by FPS Chair, Malcolm O’Sullivan alongside stand-up comedian and ex-serving police officer, Alfie Moore.
The ceremony will be followed by an After Party, reserved exclusively for guests of the Awards. This soiree will give guests a chance to network with friends and colleagues whilst celebrating the rest of the evening in style with live musical entertainment.
