Thames Valley: Business Magazine Awards first wave of finalists announced
The first wave of finalists have been chosen for this year’s Thames Valley Business Magazine Awards.
Celebrating its 25th anniversary, the Awards will culminate in a gala evening on November 28 at the Royal Berkshire Conference Centre in Reading’s Madejski Stadium, hosted by TV presenter Vernon Kay.
The awards are open to every company in the Thames Valley area and recognise profitability, innovation and employment, as well as contributions made to the local economic community and support for culture and charities in the region. More than 70 entries were received across eight award categories.
Peter Laurie, head of client relations at awards organiser The Business Magazine and chair of the judging panel, said: “We’re thrilled to be holding our 25th annual awards showcasing the Thames Valley’s very best businesses. As always, our panel of judges faced some tough decisions. And once again, there are some great names in the running for these prestigious awards.”
