Lancashire Business Awards

On Thursday 7th November we got our glad rags on and headed to Stanley House in Blackburn for the Downtown in Business Lancashire Business Awards (#LBA).
We were greeted with a red carpet and champagne reception before heading upstairs for the ceremony itself. Gathered with dozens of other successful Lancashire based businesses ranging from fellow digital/creatives to solicitors and bars, we took our seats on table 1, sharing our evening with representatives from UCLan. After introductions and the male and female networkers of the year were awarded, food was served. A beautiful salmon and caviar starter was followed by a succulent beef main course, rounded off with chocolate and honeycomb cheesecake for dessert. As drinks flowed and the plates were cleared away, the ceremony commenced.
We were nominated for Digital Agency of the Year, and whilst we unfortunately weren’t named winners on the night, we were privileged to be shortlisted with such fantastic local talent. Winners on the night included our friends at Magma Digital, Stratos and UCLan.
The night was a fantastic celebration of Lancashire in business and a great opportunity to meet up with fellow local businesses outside of the office. We took our whole team along, and had a fantastic evening, as the pictures show!
