Best of Royal Greenwich Business Awards Ceremony

Royal Greenwich is delighted to announce the Best of Royal Greenwich Business Awards Ceremony will take place on 7 February 2025 at InterContinental Hotel, O2.

This prestigious event is the highlight of the business calendar and a celebration of the achievements made by local businesses over the last 12 months.

Local businesses play a vital role in delivering essential goods and services to residents and visitors, providing jobs and sustainable growth. The Best of Royal Greenwich Business Awards are our way of recognising the fantastic work they do, while providing publicity, exposure and networking opportunities to our business community and encouraging residents to shop local.

Organised by the council in association with LandsecU+I and supported by the South East London Chamber of Commerce, the Best of Royal Greenwich Business Awards is an annual opportunity to celebrate and showcase local businesses and their outstanding contributions to the borough.

The awards ceremony will be hosted by political commentator, writer and comedian Baroness Ayesha Hazarika MBE.
