Hugo Dixon wins Decade of Excellence Award
In 2008 Business Journalist of the Year Awards
Four other breakingviews writers honoured

London, April 25 2008:

Hugo Dixon last night won the Decade of Excellence Award at the Business Journalist of the Year Awards. The editor-in-chief and chairman of breakingviews received the award at a ceremony at the Grosvenor House in London.

Four other breakingviews writers were honoured at the same awards:

- Edward Chancellor, one of breakingviews’ founding editors and now a regular columnist, was named best economics journalist for an article that was published in Institutional Investor and, subsequently, on breakingviews.

- Simon Nixon, breakingviews’ executive editor, was shortlisted as best online journalist.

- Edward Chancellor and Lauren Silva were shortlisted as best corporate team.

- Richard Beales, a breakingviews’ associate editor, was shortlisted in the best finance team for his work at the Financial Times.

Hugo Dixon said: “breakingviews has grown rapidly since its inception eight years ago. But we are still a fairly small organisation. To have so many of our writers honoured in the business journalist ‘oscars’ is a tremendous achievement.”
