Echo and Business Post Regional Business Awards

The Liverpool ECHO, in association with our acclaimed monthly magazine Business Post, is delighted to produce the region’s premier business awards event for 2019.

On Thursday, June 20 this year at the magnificent Anglican Cathedral, Liverpool, we will celebrate and honour the very best in the city region’s business community.

The Liverpool Echo – Merseyside’s best-selling newspaper and a digital brand experiencing extraordinary audience growth – is delighted once again to be the official media host of the Regional Business Awards.

It is our 25th year, and this year we are delighted to partner with the Liverpool Business School as executive sponsors. Based at Liverpool John Moores University, the school is helping Liverpool and the wider region further establish itself as a centre for academic business studies and excellence.

The development and progression of the Liverpool Business School is yet another key indicator that the city region’s business and economic health remains on a serious upcurve. We’re delighted to have them on board as sponsors – and are grateful too to all of our other award category sponsors for their support again this year.

Headline Sponsor

Liverpool John Moores University - Liverpool Business School

Liverpool Business School is a Faculty within Liverpool John Moores University and a provider of business education for over 30 years. As part of a modern civic university, we seek to make a significant impact to growth in the Liverpool city region and beyond.

Our corporate development portfolio recognises the impact that trained managers have on transforming business performance, and works across sectors and organisations to develop leaders and managers.

We believe the Government apprenticeship scheme is an opportunity to enable this transformation and have designed a range of flexible leadership and management programmes, mapped to the apprenticeship standards. The courses enable businesses to meet organisational training needs and staff to realise their potential, for those new to managing, right through to senior managers and leaders. We encourage businesses to use their apprenticeship levy to develop great leaders, who will help to lead change in their organisation.

We support businesses in an increasingly digital world by providing courses and graduates with the digital skills and knowledge required by all sectors. Our academic research strives to help fill knowledge gaps in the area of digital technology through research activity undertaken by our Digital Sciences Centre and Advanced Digital Research Group.

By understanding partner organisations, and engineering flexibility into the support we provide, we can help businesses grow. Through bespoke programmes and interventions built around individual businesses and employees, the Liverpool Business School will create the next generation of leaders, and assist in driving economic development right across the Liverpool City Region.
