Lancashire is home to an incredible community of ambitious businesses, entrepreneurs and innovators, and we're proud to play a small part in celebrating their success.

"To now sponsor the Deal of the Year category is particularly exciting. We have the privilege of hearing first-hand from businesses that are driving transformational growth through investment, acquisitions and strategic deals. Their ambition is helping to shape Lancashire's thriving economy, and we're delighted to recognise and celebrate those achievements.”
