There’s something for everyone, whether it be small start-ups or industrial estate factories, and there are awards that span pure economic success through to helping the environment.

This year we are again asking you to nominate a member of staff for Employee of the Year – the only category voted for by readers.

A judging panel will determine the other winners, and there will also be a Businessperson of the Year award unveiled on the night.
