Nominations for the Leicestershire Innovation Awards are now open! These Awards are one of the highlights of the Innovation Festival, led by the Business Gateway Growth Hub that takes place from 6 to 17 February 2023.
There are a variety of awards to enter for any business, small or large that wants to showcase its achievements. Innovation comes in many forms. It’s about thinking differently about a challenge whether that’s reducing costs, reaching new customers or cutting carbon emissions. It could be anything that’s helped the business move forward and grow so all Leicestershire companies and individuals are invited to submit one or more nominations.
