Entries open for Generation Next Awards

Entries are now open for awards backed by East Midlands Chamber, which celebrate the region’s top young professionals.

The Next Generation Awards aim to recognise future leaders, creatives and apprentices aged between 18 and 35.

This year, there are 12 categories, including three new awards: Excellence in Professional Services, Excellence in Sales and Marketing and Communicator of the Year.

Lucy Robinson, the chamber’s director of resources and Generation Next lead, said: “There’s so much young business talent in the East Midlands that deserve to be recognised for hard work, skill or innovative thinking.

“Whether you or a colleague excel in customer service, are a promising apprentice or have led a project brilliantly, we want to know.”

Entries close at 5pm on 7 March. To see full entry requirements and to submit an entry, visit https://generationnextemc.co.uk/2025-awards/.
