The ceremony
This black tie event is one of the most important and influential evenings in the county's social calendar.
Invited guests literally receive the red carpet treatment with Champagne reception and top class dinner.
Last year, our guest speaker was George Osborne, the-then shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer. In 2008, it was top BBC business reporter Adam Shaw.
Full details of this year's awards ceremony will be announced shortly but finalists are guaranteed a gala evening to remember, offering exceptional networking opportunities.
