We’re eyeing up a bigger trophy shelf at SuSy HQ, after the team brought home the Rising Star Award from the South West finals of the UK StartUp Awards 2024.
The UK StartUp Awards were established to highlight the success of startups across ten UK nations and regions, including the South West, and to celebrate the achievements of entrepreneurs in all sectors of the economy.
Over 44,000 new businesses were created in the South West in 2023 and according to Professor Dylan Jones-Evans OBE, creator of the awards, this demonstrates the growing importance of entrepreneurs to the regional economy. He is also excited that the awards are, yet again, recognising the best new firms from Cornwall to Gloucestershire and celebrating the amazing entrepreneurial talent from every corner of the region.
As a regional winner in their category, SuSy will now progress to the UK Startup Awards final being held at Ideas Fest on September 12th, dubbed ‘the Glastonbury for Entrepreneurs’.
