We’re on the hunt for the UK's most pioneering and creative businesses and their entrepreneurial owners, so if your company’s growth stands out from the crowd, keep reading.
In a difficult environment for companies of all descriptions, the entrepreneurial firms who are delivering impressive growth deserve special recognition. The Fast Growth Business Awards 2009, sponsored by T-Mobile, will reward the cream of the UK’s entrepreneurial talent at a star-studded ceremony in central London in March.
It’s a great opportunity to gain press coverage, network with your peers and show your staff, clients and suppliers that your achievements are being recognised.
Last year’s overall winner, Perry Wilson, managing director of Insure and Go, is in no doubt about the value of winning the award. "It is fantastic recognition for all the hard work put in by the Insure and Go team and a great platform from which to take the business to the next level," he says.
Your business will be put to the test by our respected panel of entrepreneurs and experts, recognising winners in 14 categories (see below) and crowning one outstanding company the T-Mobile Fast Growth Business of the Year 2009.
This year’s illustrious judging panel includes: James Caan, entrepreneur, investor and dragon; David Soskin, CEO of cheapflights.co.uk; Kanya King, founder of the MOBO Organisation; Alastair Lukies, CEO of Monitise and 2008 AIM Business of the Year winner; and T-Mobile’s Oliver Chivers.
T-Mobile are headline sponsor of the Awards for the third consecutive year.
To be in with a chance of joining us at the London Marriott Hotel on March 18, 2009, check the criteria and download your entry form at http://www.fgba.co.uk/.
