The ceremony will take place at Nottingham Trent University Business School.
A range of businesses have been recognised in the Real Entrepreneurs' Awards 2023 shortlist this week.
The Real Entrepreneurs’ Awards celebrate those who have started their own businesses, invented a new product, successfully collaborated with others, or grown their business significantly.
The panel of judges is made up of highly successful Midlands-based entrepreneurs: Glynis Wright MBE; Patterson Commercial Law Managing Director Rik Pancholi; Premier Logistics Client Relationship Manager Macauley Christopher; University of Derby Enterprise Development Manager Angela Tooley; and Lewis Stringer Senior Manager at UK Network - East and South-East Midlands.
This year’s headline sponsor Fraser Stretton Property Group is a Leicestershire-based company. Its founders Narinder Nijjar and Jaz Kaur have been promoting the awards across the Midlands, which has bolstered nominations coming in from new sectors and industries.
Narinder and Jaz are allies to fellow entrepreneurs, offering their support to others in business. On the night of the ceremony, they’ll make a speech that encourages entrepreneurship and present the idea of kinship between fellow business owners and being an ally to others.
Ceremony guests will also see a selection of up-and-coming entrepreneurs take the stage to participate in a ‘Pitching Platform’ sponsored by Pattersons Commercial Law where one lucky pitcher will receive a non-executive board of directors for the year amongst many more benefits.
Tickets are £90 or £850 for a table of ten and can be secured by emailing awards@realentrepreneurs.co.uk or filling in an online form.
The Real Entrepreneurs’ Awards takes place on May 4, 2023 at Nottingham Trent University Business School: 50 Shakespeare St, Nottingham NG1 4FQ.
Five shortlisted candidates have been selected in each of the 10 categories ahead of the awards ceremony to be held on May 4, 2023 at Nottingham Trent University Business School.
