Deadline Date for Sheffield Business Awards Fast Approaching!
15th August 2018
The deadline date for applications to this year's Sheffield Business Awards is fast approaching and organisers, Sheffield Chamber of Commerce, are urging all businesses to apply before the 3rd September 2018.
The awards are designed to represent companies of all sizes and sectors, with a range of categories to apply for. From visitor experience to large business, marketing to high growth, the awards provide an opportunity for businesses to promote their achievements during the year, raise their profile and ultimately gain the recognition they deserve. The event attracts widespread attention both locally and regionally via media coverage, promotional collateral and through its presence of highly distinguished supporters and guests, many of which return year on year and have described this as the 'must attend event' in our region. The headline sponsor for the evening is Elevation Recruitment Group. Brenda Jordan, Operations Director at Sheffield Chamber of Commerce, said: -The Sheffield Business Awards are a fantastic platform for any business, irrespective of size and sector, to showcase their achievements and promote their skills, expertise and success. It is one of the most prestigious events in the city and over the last few years we have had some amazing winners who have gone on to win honours at national level and are a credit to our city. -Now in 2018, we are on the search once again for businesses to showcase themselves and the city. Sheffield is home to lots of outstanding individuals, organisations and charities and entering is a great opportunity for them to raise their profile, gain public recognition and inspire others.
