Peterborough Telegraph Business Excellence Awards 2024: Deadline looms for nominations

The clock is ticking for entries to the Peterborough Telegraph Business Excellence Awards 2024

​The region’s premier business awards are now open for nominations to 13 different categories as we recognise and reward the continued success of the city’s enterprises of all types from start-ups to large employers.

But the deadline for entries is just over a week away on August 31.

The final selection of shortlisted businesses post interview will be invited to attend a glittering black tie gala awards on November 21 at the Holiday Inn West, Thorpe Wood, Peterborough.

Chris Collier, head of the awards’ judges, said: “It hardly seems possible we are now looking forward to the 2024 event.

“Finalists in each category not only get noticed by other businesses, but also give the employees a good feel factor knowing how well their company is thought of in the local community.

“Many winners and finalists market their achievements at the awards on their website and in social media.”

Rachel Nicholls, chief executive of the Inspire Education Group, said: “Inspire Education Group is delighted to be the headline sponsor for this year’s esteemed Peterborough Telegraph Business Excellence Awards.

“Through this sponsorship, we hope to inspire and motivate entrepreneurs, industry leaders, and business professionals to keep pushing boundaries, championing innovation, and relentlessly pursuing excellence."
