The magazine’s editor, Sophia Hayes, explained why they have chosen to support this year’s event: “Our magazine keeps up-to-date with all the latest goings on in Birmingham’s business world, and we attend several events each year which, like these awards, praise business success.

“Our Business Matters section showcases the region’s most influential businesses and entrepreneurs, and so we have a good understanding on the area’s most successful businesses.”

She continued: “It is important that businesses receive the recognition they deserve, as they play such a crucial role in the community.

“We have supported the Birmingham Post Business Awards for many years and are thrilled to be back for this year’s event.

“We cannot wait to see all the finalists at this year’s ceremony and wish everyone the very best of luck on the night!”
