Business Tapas Wins Most Innovative Project of the Year at the IED Annual Awards 2024!

At the beginning of November, the Business Tapas team celebrated in style at the annual Institute of Economic Development awards, picking up the award for ‘Most Innovative Project of the Year’!

Congratulations to the other shortlisted businesses within our category, Blaenau Gwent Country Borough Council and Greater Manchester Combined Authority Economy Team.

The event was a brilliant showcase of some really fantastic work, and the team were honoured to have been selected within this group.

Councillor Nathan Pardoe, Cabinet Member for Inclusive Economy, Regeneration and Digital Transformation, said:

“It’s fantastic to hear business owners praise the work of the Council’s Business Growth Team, and the award from the Institute of Economic Development must be the cherry on top for them.

The Business Tapas platform is a great resource for all local businesses at whatever stage of their journey. It is part of the Council’s business support offer that helps local businesses to start-up, scale-up and innovate – creating sustainable and inclusive growth and a fair Cheshire West economy for our residents and businesses.

Thank you to all the businesses that have helped to develop Business Tapas, as well as the fantastic Cheshire West Business Growth and TMC teams, and the vibrant businesses across our borough. Thanks for being a part of a local success story!”

The Business Tapas digital knowledge hub has been designed to accelerate business growth and empower local economies, providing bitesize resources across a wide range of topics.
