Companies in the Thames Valley should now start to prepare their entries for the 19th annual Thames Valley Business Magazine Awards, the premier multi-category awards scheme in the region
Covering the M4, M40 and M3 corridors, the awards highlight the best of business in this area – and fly the flag for one of the UK’s leading economic engine rooms.
Launched by The Business Magazine in the 1990s, TVBMA has grown in stature and reputation over the years. Winners have included some of the region’s biggest success stories.
The awards are open to every company in the Thames Valley and recognise not only profitability and growth, innovation and employment, but also the contribution made to the local economic community and the provision of support to culture and charities in the region.
This year’s awards will be presented at a glittering black-tie dinner at the Royal Berkshire Conference Centre, Madejski Stadium, Reading, on Thursday, November 21.
