Over 500 of your local ‘Business Elite’ met at the ceremony which kicked off with a Champagne Reception at 6.45pm.
At around 7.30pm we were all seated by the Master of Ceremonies, Mr. Norman Prince. After a short welcome speech from Ian Savage (Editor in Chief of The Bolton News and The Bury Times) and Councillor John Byrne we were served with a fabulous four course meal.
A rather amusing after dinner speech was then presented by the guest speaker Geoff Miller — a former cricketer, who sits on the ECB board of selectors.
Then came the awards.
Eventura was up for two awards: SME Business of the Year and the Managing Director Chris Houghton was running for Business Person of The Year.
Unfortunately we didn’t come away with either of the awards; however we were the only company to be nominated twice! That itself is a great achievement!
So thanks to all our customers and suppliers, we aim on trying even harder to provide you with the best computing solutions and hope to bring a piece of silverware home next year!
