| Fivium has been unveiled as one of the finalists
at the Startups Awards 2008 in the Innovative
Business of the Year category. The judges were impressed by Fivium’s concept and potential, placing the business among a handful of lucky finalists plucked from hundreds of entries. Clayton Blake, Director of Fivium comments: “We are thrilled to be a finalist in the Innovative Business of the Year category and very much look forward to the event in October. It’s great that all our dedication and hard work has been recognised by Startups.co.uk, and we’re delighted to be in with a chance of not only winning the category but also the much-coveted ‘Barclays Startups Business of the Year’ prize.” Startups.co.uk is the UK’s largest independent online resource for budding entrepreneurs and the Startups Awards is one of the leading events on the small business calendar. To be eligible to enter the Startups Awards 2008, businesses must have been trading for less than three years, be privately owned, and employ fewer than 60 people. This year’s judging panel consists of some of the UK’s most successful entrepreneurs, including Chrissie Rucker, founder, The White Company; Alan Giles, chairman, Fat Face and Simon Calver, chief executive, LOVEFiLM International. The judges look at a wide range of criteria; in particular, business success either by increase in sales and unit volume, market research and identification of customer focus, organisational and team building effectiveness, strategic planning, overcoming obstacles and barriers to success, visionary leadership and social and community responsibility. The winners will be announced on 30th October 2008 at the Royal Garden Hotel Kensington, London |
