Positive About Inclusion are delighted to announce that we have been shortlisted for the prestigious Great British Entrepreneur Awards 2023 in the Start Up category for our region.

Now in its 11th year, and previously described as “The Grammys for Entrepreneurship”, these awards celebrate the outstanding individuals and businesses that drive innovation, generate employment opportunities, and contribute to the growth of the UK economy. The awards serve as a platform to honour the remarkable stories of entrepreneurs who have overcome challenges, demonstrated resilience, and made significant contributions to their communities.

Our Director, Karen said:

“We are over the moon to have been told that we are finalists alongside so many amazing fellow entrepreneurs!”

The Great British Entrepreneur Awards have become one of the most coveted accolades for entrepreneurs across the UK, celebrating the nation’s diverse entrepreneurial landscape. The awards ceremony will take place on November 20th 2023 at London’s Grosvenor House, where industry leaders, innovators, and influencers will gather to celebrate the achievements of the finalists.

Founder of the awards, Francesca James said:

“Every year I am blown away with the quantity and quality of applications we receive, and this year is no exception. The Great British Entrepreneur Awards receives thousands of applications annually and the competition is tough. I am truly inspired by the remarkable accomplishments of this year’s finalists. Their collective achievements of generating over £2.7 billion in turnover and employing over 33,000 people demonstrate the exceptional impact they have made in their industries and communities. These entrepreneurs exemplify the spirit of innovation, resilience, and growth that drives the entrepreneurial landscape in the UK.”

We are so proud to have reached this stage and we are immensely grateful for the support received from our customers, partners, and the community. The recognition of our hard work further motivates us to continue our journey of success and inspire others in the entrepreneurial ecosystem.
