Bigger and better- Yorkshire Business Masters Awards returns for 2015

THEBUSINESSDESK.COM is delighted to launch the Yorkshire Business Masters Awards 2015, which will recognise excellence, entrepreneurship, growth and enterprise in the region’s corporate community.
 
The awards, which will be held at The Queens Hotel in Leeds on February 26 2015, will be bigger and better than before with a new evening format and a high-end black-tie dinner.
 
For 2015 there are a number of new categories, including awards for successful performance by businesses with a public listing, and for businesses running apprenticeship schemes.
 
Our popular Yorkshire Manufacturer and Exporter categories are split into two to reward both SMEs and larger businesses and the other new award is for the Fast Growth Business, alongside the Pride, Innovator, Newcomer and Ambassador categories.
 
All entries – and you can nominate your own business or someone else’s – will go in front of our panel of judges – who will be revealed soon – and the shortlists, from which the winning entries will be announced on the night, will be made public soon after.
 
Previous Yorkshire Business Masters winners include electronic components supplier Premier Farnell which distributes technology and electronics products across the globe, budget gym group Xercise4Less and veteran stockbroker Keith Loudon. 

Ellie Newton-Syms, assistant editor of TheBusinessDesk.com Yorkshire, said: “We’re very excited about the changes we have made to this year’s Masters Awards.
 
“Moving the event to the evening means that we’ve got more time and so we have expanded the award categories to reward different size and type of businesses.
 
“With the business agenda so much focused on both growing international trade and developing young talent, we were really keen to expand the Export category and also to recognise businesses doing great work with Apprenticeship schemes.
 
“In the past few years some of the most dynamic businesses in the region have prospered in our awards and we fully expect that to be the case again this year. We look forward to receiving and reading all your entries. Good luck.”
