Celebrating the Rising Star – Obsequio Proudly Sponsors the Women in Fire Safety Award

At Obsequio, we believe in recognising excellence, diversity, and emerging talent. That’s why we’re proud to be sponsoring the Rising Star Award at the Women in Fire Safety Awards 2025 – an event dedicated to celebrating the remarkable contributions of women in fire safety.

We are particularly thrilled to share that our very own Sophia Blair, Bid Writer at Obsequio, has been selected as a finalist for this prestigious Rising Star Award.

What Are the Women in Fire Safety Awards?

Women in Fire Safety is a platform and annual awards ceremony that honours outstanding women who are making a difference in the fire safety industry. It highlights achievements across various categories, from leadership and innovation to technical expertise. The Rising Star Award specifically recognises emerging talent: women who are relatively early in their career but already demonstrating strong capabilities, promising potential, and meaningful impact within the sector.

The 2025 Awards will be held today (18th September) at the Leonardo Royal Hotel, London.

Why We’re Sponsoring

For Obsequio, supporting the Rising Star Award is about more than visibility. It’s a concrete way we can:

Encourage and empower women entering fire safety roles

Promote fresh ideas, innovation, and new approaches in the industry

Help build a more inclusive and diverse fire safety community, where talent can thrive regardless of background

We believe investing in future leaders is one of the best ways to ensure lasting positive change.

Congratulations, Sophia Blair!

We are proud that Sophia Blair, our Bid Writer, is among the finalists for the Rising Star Award. Sophia has shown outstanding dedication, skill, and innovation in her role – bringing fresh perspective, strong organisation and collaboration to every bid she works on, and pushing for higher standards and greater impact in her work.

Being shortlisted among peers in the fire safety industry is a testament to her hard work, commitment, and growing influence. Whatever the outcome, Sophia’s inclusion as a finalist is already a huge win for her and for Obsequio.

Looking Ahead

We are excited to join the Women in Fire Safety community this evening in celebrating exceptional talent. We wish all finalists – including Sophia – the very best.

Obsequio remains committed to supporting initiatives that raise the profile of women in fire safety, and to helping open doors for the next generation of leaders.

Thank you to Women in Fire Safety for organising such an important event, and for giving voices to emerging stars in this vital field.
