Laura Coleby Nominated for Three Women in Motor Industry Awards 2026

May 5, 2026

As 67 Degrees celebrates its tenth birthday, our CEO and Founder receives three nominations at the Female-Inspired Automotive Awards

2026 is already a year worth celebrating at 67 Degrees – and it’s just got even better! Our CEO and Founder, Laura Coleby, has been nominated for not one, not two, but three categories at the Women in Motor Industry Awards 2026.

We’ve spent a decade building award-winning automotive websites, forging long-term partnerships with dealers across the UK, and refusing to settle for “good enough”. 

In April of this year, we marked our biggest achievement to date: an independently measured NPS score of 88, placing us firmly in world-class territory where customer satisfaction is concerned. You can read more about our Net Promoter Score here. 

And now, during our milestone year, we’ve got yet even more reason to celebrate – congratulations, Laura!

What are the Women in Motor Industry Awards?

Organised by Motor Trader and returning for its second year on Wednesday 2 December at the Hilton Bankside, London, the awards celebrate the exceptional women shaping the automotive sector.

These are women who’ve broken barriers, served as genuine role models, and are actively advancing gender equality in an industry that’s long overdue for change. We are delighted that Laura has been nominated across three supplier categories – they are:

Online Platform Champion

This award celebrates a woman who has made a significant impact in the development, management, or innovation of digital platforms within the motor industry – from e-commerce and lead generation to digital customer experience and content. It recognises the people who are shaping the future of automotive engagement online. 

Laura founded 67 Degrees on exactly that vision: that automotive dealers deserved better digital experiences, and that the right platform could be the difference between a browser and a buyer. Ten years on, we are so proud of this recognition!

Supplier Inspirational Leader of the Year

This award celebrates a woman leading with excellence, vision, and compassion. And we know first-hand that building a specialist automotive agency from the ground up takes more than technical knowledge. It takes the kind of leadership that brings people with you. 

Laura has built a team that genuinely cares, a culture where performance and personality sit side by side, and a business that dealers trust not just to build their websites, but to invest in their success. 

It’s why, when we asked our clients independently and anonymously whether they’d recommend us to a peer, they gave us an NPS (Net Promoter Score) of 88. As Laura put it herself: “We’ve always believed that doing the right thing by our customers is the only way to build a business that lasts.”

Supplier Woman of the Year

This award recognises an exceptional woman making a significant impact through leadership, innovation, and excellence. In just a decade, Laura has taken 67 Degrees from a simple idea (to make the automotive world feel a little more human) to the UK’s automotive performance specialists, trusted by hundreds of dealerships and recognised with many industry awards. 

She’s built a company where 85% of clients say 67 Degrees understands their business goals either “very well” or “well,” and where the team has just been handed what Laura called “a fantastic tenth birthday gift” in the form of that world-class NPS score. 

We are absolutely buzzing that Laura has received three nominations in the 2026 Women in Motor Industry Awards, and we’ll be eagerly awaiting to hear if she is shortlisted among the competition. 

Congratulations, Laura. The whole 67 Degrees team is behind you!

The Women in Motor Industry Awards 2026 take place on Wednesday 2 December at the Hilton Bankside, London.
