Downtown Lancashire in Business celebrated the very best of the Red Rose county at the 10th annual Lancashire Business Awards, sponsored by Liverpool John Lennon Airport, on Thursday 21 June 2018.
The gala dinner, which took place at the spectacular Stanley House Hotel & Spa, attracted over 200 business leaders to celebrate the best of the Lancashire Business community.
The big winners on the evening were Daniel Fisher from Tienda Digital, who walked away with the CEO Award, John Chesworth from Harrison Drury Solicitors, who was the Business Personality of the Year 2018 and Recycling Lives won the Contribution to Lancashire award.
Other winners included Business Lancashire, B&M Waste Services, UCLan, RSM UK and NatWest.
Frank McKenna CEO of Downtown in Business commented: “The Lancashire Business Awards are always a great night, and this year was no exception. We had an exceptional group of winners, which was fitting as the awards were being hosted for the tenth year, and I believe the 2018 nominations demonstrated the strength and resilience of the county’s business community.”
