22live Win ‘Start-Up’ Business of the Year 2024

It was the first year of a much more in-depth judging process that saw every business that entered receive a site visit from judges before the shortlists were drawn up. Then each of the shortlisted companies presented to a panel of judges before the winners were selected.

In the case of 22live this process was led by Alex Penn 22live Commercial Director, wth support from Ian Bidmead 22live Finance Director.

Anna Cooper, TheBusinessDesk.com’s assistant editor in the West Midlands, said: “It’s been great to get to know your businesses through that process and really understand what has been achieved and what your ambitions are for the future.

“We are all looking forward to watching your progress in the months and years ahead.”

Stefan Phillips, 22live Operations Director and Alex Penn attended the Awards on the evening of February 22nd. Alex Penn comments “We were confident our credentials were impressive as a start-up business, but bringing home the award against strong competition is a real boost for all of us. This Business Award puts us on the map within the wider West Midlands Business community and helps to establish ourselves as a company on the right path and set to be here for the long-term, and we’re grateful to the judging panel for recognising us.”

Spencer Beard, 22live Managing Director summarised; “Winning this Business Award is a fantastic achievement for all at 22live, and testament to the hard work that we do to not only deliver great results for our customers, all of whom we are grateful to for their support, but also the strong backbone we have built to deliver a company set for big things in the future.”

Congratulations to all the short-listed companies and winners involved in the Business of the Year Awards 2024.
