20 companies will vie for top honours
The finalists have been named for the Peterborough Telegraph Business Excellence Awards 2024.
More than 20 companies have been shortlisted for a share of the 13 categories that make up this year’s annual celebration of excellence in enterprise.
The names of the winners will be announced at a gala awards ceremony on November 21.
They will be vying for awards celebrating a variety of key features of business life from innovation and sustainability to customer service and commitment to staff.
Our glittering awards ceremony will take place at a Black Tie gala dinner at the Holiday Inn West, Thorpe Wood, Peterborough, with a drinks reception followed by a three course dinner.
The guest speaker at the event will be ‘disabled adventurer’ Jamie McAnsh.
In January 2014, Jamie, AKA Mr See No Bounds woke up not being able to use his legs.
After a tedious journey of medical assessment, Jamie was eventually diagnosed with a functional neurological condition called Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS).
However, instead of focusing on life in a wheelchair! Jamie developed a taste for adventure and turned his frustrations into sparking his creative abilities. And out of the ashes of a life changing disaster See No Bounds was born. Jamie is committed to living life outside the box.
A spokesperson for the awards’ headline sponsor, Inspire Education Group, said: “We are thrilled to recognise these inspiring local businesses.
“Through investing in education and skills development businesses are empowered to thrive and we’re honoured to be part of a community where innovation and excellence are celebrated, driving economic growth and prosperity for Peterborough and the surrounding region.”
