After long and careful consideration, judges Cllr Mariam Lolavar, Byron Cole, Ha Smith, James Davy and Mike Finlay have chosen the fantastic finalists. With over 235 nominations, this year’s Business Awards are the talk of the town.

Royal Greenwich’s business community has responded quickly to the pandemic, regularly going above and beyond over the past 18 months. Just 54 businesses made it to the exclusive shortlist from over 235 applications, and they will find out if they'll be taking home a trophy on 22 October at a glitzy ceremony hosted by Meera Syal CBE. 

Thank you to everyone who has entered and congratulations to everyone who has been shortlisted.
