NEXT Generation Chamber has launched its inaugural Business Awards to recognise and celebrate the very best of the aspiring young business people in our region.
These awards recognise the talent and dedication of the next generation of business leaders who work in all sectors across Northamptonshire and Milton Keynes.
Next Generation Chamber was established in 2017 by Northamptonshire Chamber of Commerce and Milton Keynes Chamber of Commerce to help businesses support and nurture staff who are dedicated to advancing their careers.
It provides a platform for ambitious young business people in the area to help them grow and develop via a series of exclusive networking and training events.
The Next Generation Business Awards will be presented to inspiring young people whose achievements are making an impressive impact in their chosen field.
The five categories are:
* Creative Sector Star of the Year Award
* Hospitality Star of the Year Award
* Service Industry Star of the Year Award
* Milton Keynes Star of the Year Award
* Northamptonshire Star of the Year Award
These awards can be entered by individuals or a company can complete the entry on behalf of an employee or colleague.
The culmination will be an awards ceremony and dinner on Friday, 5 July, at the Marriott Northampton, where the winners of each category will be revealed and presented with their awards.
Paul Griffiths, who is chief executive of Northamptonshire Chamber and its sister Chamber in Milton Keynes, said: “We’re very excited to be able to host the first ever Next Generation Business Awards to recognise the future business leaders in our region, who are already making a huge difference in their chosen field.
“We encourage all young professionals working in Northamptonshire or Milton Keynes to consider entering the awards and celebrate their own efforts or those of a colleague.”
