The awards ceremony

The winner’s experience

RECOGNITION

All finalists will be invited to ‘finalist drinks’, a networking opportunity where the partners and lifetime achievement award winners all come together.

We’ll announce the finalists on social media and in our press release to showcase the shortlist. They’ll also receive an unforgettable VIP experience on the awards night itself.

A SUPPORTIVE PEER GROUP

After the ceremony, winners will be invited to a ‘winner’s lunch’, held the following January. This will include all stakeholders, partners, sponsors and lifetime achievement award winners.

Following that, there will be quarterly check-ins – in March, June and September – to follow up and continue to support the award winners and nurture their business.

PRACTICAL BUSINESS SUPPORT

Winners will be invited to share their business objectives for the year, and to highlight where they may need support, which could include advice and guidance, professional services or a financial contribution.

Our intention is to assist where possible, utilising the skills and knowledge from the local community to drive these organisations forward and to help them grow.

How are the awards judged?

The new-look Hull & East Yorkshire Business Awards are judged on more than the quality of a written submission. This ensures truly deserving people and businesses are recognised for their achievements.

This is the new, improved and more comprehensive process.
