Celebrating all that is best about family businesses
They are the backbone of the economy in the South West.
Family Businesses have long been the driving force of the economy not just in the South West but in the whole of the UK.
This year TheBusinessDesk.com is celebrating the very best of family businesses in its first ever Business of The Year Awards.
The Family Business Award is likely to be one of the most hotly contested.
Our award aims to recognise and celebrate those companies which stand out in the category.
The first ever Business of The Year Awards in the South West are taking place in the autumn and will celebrate the very best in innovation, creativity and commerce in the region.
They follow on from our successful Leadership Awards which attracted entries from across the South West.
We want to hear from anyone whose organisation has made a difference when it comes to protecting the planet or has transformed the way their company operates.
A rigorous judging process will see all of the companies visited by members of our judging panel, before a shortlisting process.
Each company on the shortlist will then be invited to pitch why they should win an award, with the winners revealed at the black-tie dinner at the Bristol Harbour Hotel in Bristol.
The Business of the Year Awards are being sponsored by law firm Michelmores and Partners & and the winners will be announced at a glittering ceremony in central Bristol in November.
