The search is on to find the best businesses in Peterborough with the launch of the 14th Evening Telegraph Business Awards.Members of the public are invited to nominate those firms they think should be contending in the event's various award categories.
All nominated companies will then be posted an easy-to-complete entry form to the Business Awards. But companies can also chose to enter themselves by contacting The Evening Telegraph for an entry form on 01733 588842.
This year, veteran TV newsreader Sir Trevor McDonald will host the final in a glittering awards ceremony on Friday, November 13.
Award judges and sponsors are now urging business owners and managers across the region to make sure they enter their firms in the competition which will celebrate the strength and variety of Peterborough's business community.
How to nominate
To nominate a company or to receive an entry pack for The ET Business Awards 2009, visit www.peterboroughtoday.co.uk/businessawards.
The deadline for entries is Friday, 4th September 2009.
Judges' chairman Nigel Hards said: "The judges are looking forward to meeting those individuals and companies that are continuing to make real progress notwithstanding the current difficult macro economic backdrop. It will be interesting to see who has continued to invest in training, the community and the environment when often these are the first things to go when the market place tightens.
"This year's winners will be real heros." Evening Telegraph editor Mark Edwards said:
"Our awards night puts the spotlight on the cream of the crop of our businesses and sends out a message to the rest of the country that, even in these difficult economic times, Peterborough is a centre of business excellence."
This year's competition will welcome back many of last year's sponsors including Barclays, Norwich and Peterborough, Peterborough City Council and Royal Mail.
In addition, last year's excellent team of judges
have agreed to return and they are Bill Agnew, Chris Collier, Anne Corder, Colleen Gostick, Nigel Hards, Bill Samuels and Jenny Weston.
After the closing date for entries, judges will draw up a shortlist of finalists. Each finalist will be visited by the judges who will then decide on the winners to be announced at the awards ceremony in November at the Holiday Inn, in Thorpe Wood, Peterborough.
