The Somerset Business Awards are back and gearing up for entries for a sparkling 19th anniversary celebration of the County’s finest. Organised annually by our very own Somerset Chamber of Commerce, leading accountancy firm Albert Goodman is also back and leading the way with support for the occasion as keynote sponsor.
Competition is expected to be fierce but friendly as old rivals and new entrants alike vie for the much-coveted awards – could your business be a winner in 2024?
As a nod to the mixed fortunes of the year, a new category, the Business Resilience and Growth Award aims to recognise businesses which, despite the soaring costs of doing business, have reinvented their offering to go from strength-to-strength. New judges and sponsors across several categories will also be eyeing all entries with interest.
There is also a new-look Manufacturing and Engineering Award, plus awards for the Best Use of Digital Technology and Environmental and Sustainability, an area we know many of our businesses across the county are exploring with innovative solutions and areas for new growth.
With 14 categories covering all sectors and sizes of business and charity, we can guarantee there is something of interest for everyone. The awards are free to enter and businesses do not need to be a member of Somerset Chamber to take part.
Entries are now open until 24 November via the Somerset Business Awards website, so let the applications and competition begin!
