Entries Now Open for the West London Business Awards 2024
Entries are now open for the West London Business Awards 2024, which showcase business excellence, and are established as one of the pre-eminent award schemes in the capital. The awards celebrated their tenth anniversary earlier this year and now enter a second decade of spotlighting business excellence in West London’s business community.
The eleventh edition of the awards will showcase business excellence in West London around six themes: ‘SME Sector leadership’, ‘Sustainable & responsible business’, ‘Economic growth’, ‘Corporate leadership’, ‘Individual leadership’ and ‘Next Generation’, featuring up-and-coming West London business talent. Whatever the sector, whatever the business, there is a category to enter.
A key date in the West London Business calendar, the gala awards ceremony in February 2024 will bring together over 500 guests from across the sub-region’s business community, as well as representation from central and local government – a truly unique and special occasion. Partners include: Heathrow, Brunel University London, University of West London, Venture X, Westfield London, AWS, HRUC, West London Institute of Technology and Ultra Education.
This year, 26 awards will be up for grabs, and all organisations that trade in West London* are eligible to enter until Friday 6 October 2023.
Early bird entries cost £20 (£30 after Friday 8 September), redeemable against the cost of a ticket at the gala ceremony in February 2024.
Out of all the winners, one will be awarded the prestigious title of West London Company of the Year 2024, last year won by Lamington Group. Other notable award winners in 2023 included: West London Company of the Decade, won by Wrapology; West London Business Leader of the Year, given to Frank Khalid OBE, Founder, West London Film Studios; and the Lifetime Achievement in Business Award, granted to Peter Johnson, Chair, Vivalda Group.
Andrew Dakers, Chief Executive of West London Business, said: “This will be our eleventh West London Business Awards, and the awards continue to provide an excellent platform to recognise leadership and innovation across West London. I encourage the vast talent pool of businesses and organisations across our area to get involved and shine a light on your great work. Our awards are often a springboard for wider national recognition too.”
