We’re thrilled to announce Company Director Antony Grace will serve as an independent judge at the upcoming Wigan Business Awards. Antony joins a distinguished panel of over 30 judges comprising the North West’s brightest business minds.
Shortlisting has already taken place by an independent panel throughout the Summer. The awards on Friday 8th November at The Edge, Wigan, will feature a total of 96 finalists.
The Wigan Business Awards return after a four-year hiatus. It is organised by Atherton-based events business owners of Launch Events North West, Nichola Howard and Jo Leigh.
The pair launched the event with the blessing of Greater Manchester Chamber of Commerce: the original organisers. The Chamber announced their Wigan Business Awards would not be returning after the pandemic. Instead, the Greater Manchester Chamber Excellence Awards will absorb them.
Also celebrating being the newly appointed Wigan Vice President for the GMCC, Antony Grace said:
“It is an absolute honour to be both a sponsor and to be judging these awards. As a business owner, I have witnessed for myself the power of surrounding yourself with a network of decent businesspeople who want to lift each other up.
“It will be a tough process to whittle down the shortlist, but I’m looking forward to celebrating the achievements of the incredible businesspeople taking part”
Nichola Howard, awards organiser, said: “We are committed to ensuring the awards are independently and objectively judged by people who have ‘been there and done it themselves’ – so to have Antony join our esteemed panel after ASH’s year of accolades is fantastic.
“As organisers, we won’t be involved in deciding who the winners are – we can’t wait to see who the judges announce and to celebrate with the finalists on the night!”
