In the spotlight: Lancashire’s young business talent

By Ged Henderson

17 Mar 2021

Lancashire Business View is putting the spotlight on the county’s up and coming young business talent and the part they will play in our post-pandemic fightback. 

Hot on the heels of our search for women who are making a difference in the county, we’re now looking for the young entrepreneurs and innovators playing a major role in taking our economy forward. 

Sub36 is our ongoing campaign to showcase the county’s young business talent. As part of that commitment to that, in this issue we’ll be focusing on some of our most influential, innovative and inspiring young men and women, all aged under 36, who are going to help drive our recovery. 

We’re eager to hear about their plans, their hopes and their aspirations. And we’re calling on you to help us in identifying these inspirational people who are making their mark in these challenging times. 

If there is someone you’d like to nominate for our list, please get in touch by filling in the form below.

Lancashire Business View publisher Richard Slater said: “In our last issue we put the spotlight on the county’s up and coming women in business and the impact their efforts will have on Lancashire’s recovery from the Covid-19 pandemic. 

“With the help of our readers we were able to showcase some of the inspirational women making a massive contribution to our economy through their work, across a massive range of sectors. It was an impressive and diverse list. 

“Now we want to do the same with our young talented people. We highlight their success stories annually through our Sub36 awards.  

However, as we look to emerge from the pandemic and all its impact, we think it is timely to focus on the ‘up and coming’ entrepreneurs and innovators, to highlight their achievements during lockdown and to share their vision of the post-pandemic future. 

“If you know of someone, in any sector of the economy here in Lancashire, that you think fits that bill, please share their names with us.”
