The Entrepreneurial Exchange Entrepreneur of the Year Awards
Thursday 26 November 2009 - Hilton Glasgow
In association with Deloitte and Business7
As part of our original mission to foster the culture of entrepreneurship in Scotland we launched The Entrepreneurial Exchange Entrepreneur of the Year awards in 1996. Our awards were the first in Scotland to celebrate entrepreneurship and our Awards Dinner had become established as the highlight of the business calendar.
Nearly 800 Exchange members and their guests will gather on Thursday 26 November 2009 at the Hilton Glasgow to celebrate success, recognise achievement and honour those who have made a significant contribution to entrepreneurship at Scotland's only gathering "for entrepreneurs, by entrepreneurs."Entries are now being invited for this year's awards which recognise top talent in Scotland's business world.
The awards, launched in 1995, have been handed to many high profile business leaders including Sir Tom Hunter, City Refrigeration boss Willie Haughey, Direct Holidays founder John Boyle and David Milne of Wolfson Microelectronics
There are two main awards. The coveted Entrepreneur of the Year award is presented to the person who has led their business to strong growth in revenue and profits through innovation, teamwork and leadership skills. This award recognises the talented and committed individuals who are running Scotland's most successful growth businesses.
The Emerging Entrepreneur of the Year award is judged with one eye on the future and goes to the person who has demonstrated that he or she is building a business of outstanding potential.
The Entrepreneur of the Year Awards are being sponsored by Deloitte and Business7
James Boyle, the head of Entrepreneurial Business Scotland at Deloitte, said: "Scotland has always had a great track record and culture of encouraging and fostering innovation and entrepreneurship. Deloitte is committed to this sector of the Scottish business community and our continued partnership with the Entrepreneurial Exchange Awards illustrates our support and expertise in the market".
