The Faculty warmly welcomes the announcement that Professor Bobby Reddy has been awarded a prestigious Leverhulme Prize in Law for 2026.
The Leverhulme Prize is a national competition across a series of academic disciplines, comprising, in 2026, Biological Sciences, History, Law, Mathematics and Statistics, Philosophy and Theology, and Sociology and Social Policy. Chosen from over 400 nominations across the UK, Professor Reddy was awarded one of five Leverhulme Prizes in Law for his work on corporate law and regulation, capital markets reform, corporate governance, private equity, and doctrinal corporate law.
Reacting to the announcement, Professor Reddy said: "I was delighted to hear that I had been awarded a Leverhulme Prize in 2026, and I am very grateful to the Leverhulme Trust for their generosity and for choosing my research for the award. The prize gives me the scope, capacity and resources to further my research on 'Reviving the Publicly Traded Company', and I am looking forward to working with the Trust to complete my research."
An award ceremony is scheduled to take place in March.
