Friday 13th turned out to be a good day, as we learned that Diespeker has been shortlisted in the Southwark Business Awards.
Diespeker is in the running for the SME Excellence Award, alongside nine other impressive nominees. This comes not long after the announcement of our first place in the Tomorrow’s Tile & Stone Awards, and the whole Diespeker team is excited about the news.
It is the first year for this event, which has been organised by Southwark Business Excellence Awards in association with Lewisham Southwark College to celebrate the many successes and achievements of the borough’s business community.
Senior independent adjudicator Ross Sturley, of business consultancy Chart Lane, who oversaw the shortlist selection, said: “The depth, variety and quality of entry across all categories was impressive, nowhere more so than in the culture-oriented categories. Anyone who is shortlisted in these awards can rest assured they have seen off some seriously strong competition.”
Backed by Lewisham Southwark College and Awards Partners, Southwark Chamber of Commerce, Southwark Council, and White Label Creative, the awards are sponsored by: British Land, CIT, ENGIE, Grosvenor, Landsec, Lendlease, UAL: London College of Communication, and Sellar. The programme is supported by Jensen’s Gin, Shangri-La Hotel, and Southwark News.
All will be revealed as a black-tie Gala Dinner and Charity Ball at Hilton Bankside London on 21st June. If you want to join us, tickets are on sale now at: www.southwarkawards.co.uk
