Stars of Business Awards - Sponsorship Opportunities
30th April, 2019
On Friday 21st June, business people across Penrith will come together to celebrate the achievements of the business community at The Roundthorn Country House Hotel for our annual Stars of Business Awards. The Awards ceremony aims to recognise and reward the individual and company success of those in business in and around Penrith.
Sponsorship
The awards would not be possible without our lovely supporters, and on that note, we are delighted to announce our first two sponsors for the evening.
For the first time, Penrith Business Parks - the brand created by the new Penrith Industrial BID - will be our Headline Sponsor and will present the coveted Business of the Year Award. Chair of Penrith Industrial BID, Chris Staniowski said "One of our aims is to work collaboratively, and being the headline sponsor of the Stars of Business Awards will give us the opportunity to showcase our new brand, meet new contacts to help us work together with businesses across Penrith and better support our members. We're really looking forward to seeing who will be nominated for the Business of the Year Award, and of course presenting it on the night."
The Retailer of the Year Award will again be sponsored by Penrith Business Improvement District. Their Chair, Darren Broad, said "Penrith has a fantastic range of shops and sponsoring this award is a great opportunity to draw attention to the diversity of retailers in the town.”
Sponsorship Opportunities
We still have a couple of openings for Individual Award Sponsorship. As an award sponsor, you'll receive:

Dust off your glad rags and take advantage of our package for award sponsor, which includes tickets and dinner for two guests. You’ll be invited to our exclusive pre-dinner drinks reception to enjoy a red carpet welcome, and a glass of fizz, with the opportunity to network with our VIP guests including other sponsors, judges and of course our award nominees and have your photo taken by a variety of invited press photographers.
You will be invited to present one of our award categories, with the opportunity to talk about the services your company offer before the award is presented. You will have the opportunity to display a roll-up banner at the awards ceremony. As you would expect, your logo would be included on the awards programme, and you would receive mentions in press releases and social media.
This year we also have a couple of new initiatives - sponsors will be invited to our exclusive VIP drinks reception immediately before the awards to meet the nominees in their category and ensure that photo opportunities are enjoyed and maximised. You'll also have the opportunity to display a roll-up banner and also to include a leaflet or small brochure or promotional merchandise in guest's party bags. Individual Award Sponsorship is available at £500.
