THE ISLE OF WIGHT CHAMBER OF COMMERCE BUSINESS AWARDS FOR EXCELLENCE 2017
In partnership with the ISLE OF WIGHT COUNTY PRESS
Celebrating the best in Island business
The nominations have been announced for this year’s Business Awards For Excellence. The prestigious awards recognise the success of Isle of Wight businesses across a wide range of sizes and sectors. The winners will be named and presented with their trophy at the glamorous awards evening which is being held at Cowes Yacht Haven’s Event Centre on Friday December 1st. The event will be hosted by TV’s Fred Dinenage who makes a welcome return after hosting the ceremony last year.
“We’re looking forward to a spectacular evening,” says the Chamber’s Chief Executive Kevin Smith. “These awards put the spotlight on some truly great Island businesses, from start-ups to world-class international names. The Island has a lot to be proud of and the Chamber’s Business Awards are all about celebrating success. Once again the shortlist of nominations is incredibly strong and being nominated is a real achievement. We are supported by brilliant businesses as our sponsors and this year we welcome the Isle of Wight County Press as our headline sponsor and media partner. It’s going to be a great night.”
Tickets for the event are on-sale now and full details can be found at www.iwchamber.co.uk.
Fred Dinenage says he can’t wait to come back.
“I had a fantastic time last year and I’m so thrilled to be hosting the Business Awards again. The Isle of Wight is a place that I love and these are awards to be proud of. I’m looking forward to meeting everyone on the night and celebrating with you all.”
