Held at the Natural History Museum in London on 14 June 2012, Retail and Leisure International's (RLI) seventh annual Global RLI Awards yet again provided a thrilling evening in recognition and celebration of the most visionary and innovative retail and leisure concepts from across the globe.
At a time when the global economic crisis has brought a number of challenges for the retail and leisure sectors, the Global RLI Awards 2012 showcased some of the best projects the world has seen over the last 18 months.
Guests enjoyed a spectacular gala dinner and the coveted awards ceremony in the museum's grand Central Hall. Entertainment was provided in the form of highlights from the superb hit West End musical, Jersey Boys, and there was of course that all-important opportunity to network with friends, colleagues and new business acquaintances from across the globe.
In her opening speech, RLI Publisher Jayne Rafter said: "Ours is an industry with innovation in its DNA and tonight we reward those companies that never stop asking questions, never stop raising the standard and never settle for anything less than the best."
