Deadline looms for young talent awards

Time is running out to enter awards organised by East Midlands Chamber, which aim to celebrate the best young business talent across the region.

Run in conjunction with headline partner the University of Derby, the Generation Next Awards is open to young professionals and entrepreneurs aged between 18 and 35.

It features 11 categories, ranging from a Start-up Award and Customer Service Award through to Innovation and Technology Award and the Generation Next Future Leader.

This year, the programme includes a new addition that recognises “rising stars” who show ongoing growth and development.

Last July, Generation Next held its first in-person awards celebration at Bustler Market.

There were notable successes for a number of Marketing Derby Bondholders, including Purpose Media and Alphageek.

The closing date for entries is Monday 6 March. To find out more about the awards and how to enter visit here.
