Tenon promotes UK Entrepreneurs
Tenon, the UK’s 9th largest accountancy and business advisery firm is sponsoring The Tenon Award for Entrepreneurial Spirit in the 2008 National Business Awards for the second year running.
Tenon, who has just announced its sponsorship of the Entrepreneur of the Year Award in The National Business Awards for Scotland, has more than 1900 staff in 44 offices and is a leading adviser to entrepreneurs nationwide.
The National Business Awards, which open for entry next month, is recognised as the premier platform for recognising and rewarding success, innovation and best practise in business. The programme culminates in a glittering awards ceremony at London’s Grosvenor House Hotel on 13 November.
Andy Raynor, Chief Executive of Tenon, commented, “I was very impressed with the entrepreneurial drive and determination shown by all the finalists last year and, in particular, our winner Summit Media. I am very much looking forward to identifying this year’s finalists and rewarding dynamic companies with creative, entrepreneurial flair.”
The 2007 Tenon Award for Entrepreneurial Spirit was won by Summit Media, one of the UK’s leading internet marketing and e-commerce specialists.
Hedley Aylott, its Managing Director, said, “When we entered this award, then in its first year, we thought the criteria fitted Summit Media to a tee. They were looking for dynamic companies with creative, entrepreneurial drive, skilled at adapting to market changes quickly and succinctly and a record of identifying and exploiting market opportunities. We thought it was tailor-made for us to win – and I’m delighted that the judges agreed!”
Mike Faulkner, Director of the Awards said, “The sponsors do so much more than provide the funding essential to this independent programme’s existence. Tenon has committed to providing encouragement and support to finalists that includes many hours spent judging and analysing the entry forms. We are absolutely delighted that they have extended their valued sponsorship to 2008.”
