Finalists of Newark Business Award revealed
The wait is over and we can now reveal the finalists in the ten categories for this year’s Newark Business Awards.
Our independent judges have looked carefully over all the entry packs to come up with the shortlist.
“It has been a really tough job for the judges this year because the standard of entries was so high,” said event organiser Sharron Marriott.
“And the hard work is not yet over. Now, they have the incredibly difficult task of deciding the overall winners.”
Over the next few weeks, the judges will be interviewing employers and staff at all our finalists to decide the overall winners and highly-commended in each category.
These will be announced at a black-tie ceremony currently scheduled for October 22 at the Lady Eastwood Pavilion, Newark Showground — depending on coronavirus regulations.
As well as the presentation of the awards, it will include a three-course dinner.
Tickets are now on sale for the event, which offers the perfect excuse to network and celebrate the very best of business locally.
Early bird tickets cost £65 (inclusive of VAT) if booked before Friday, September 25. Thereafter, they will cost £70 each.
