Less than a week left to enter this year’s South West Leadership Awards
Time is running out to ensure the region’s outstanding business leaders get the recognition they deserve in TheBusinessDesk.com’s South West Leadership Awards
Now in their second year, the prestigious awards offer a great opportunity to champion the achievements and success of the leading business individuals across the South West.
The 2024 South West Leadership Awards winners
TheBusinessDesk.com created the South West Leadership Awards to celebrate the role models within their organisations and raise the bar for their competitors.
As demonstrated by last year’s winners, the individuals showcased by the awards possess the best qualities of extraordinary leadership while demonstrating the positive impact this can have.
Entrants don’t have to be a CEO to be a leader, the awards were created to celebrate the people who are role models within their organisations
The 21 categories have been designed to reflect the wide talent leadership pool across the region – from young leaders to those at the helm of its largest organisations, along with inspirational leaders from sectors spanning manufacturing, property and hospitality.
Now is the time to submit your free entry ahead of the deadline this Friday, 11 April. 
Two of last year’s winners – arts consultant and former Bristol Beacon chief executive Louise Mitchell and Ed Rowberry, the founding chief executive of impact investor BBRC – will be joined the Lord-Lieutenant of Bristol, Peaches Golding.
The winners will be revealed at a high-profile awards dinner on 17 July at the Harbour Hotel, Bristol, pictured.
