AGCC Northern Star Business Awards are coming back to P&J Live in February

Aberdeen & Grampian Chamber of Commerce (AGCC) have revealed the shortlist for their annual Northern Star Business Awards as they press ahead towards hosting a live event in February.

Now in their 18th year, the awards recognise companies in the north-east for their exceptional accomplishments across a range of fields from internationalisation and innovation to people development, environmental action and customer service.

After last year’s event was hosted virtually, winners of the 2022 event will be announced at a ceremony on Friday, February 11 at P&J Live.

Russell Borthwick, AGCC chief executive, said: “Earlier this year we were proud to celebrate the achievements of so many local organisations during what was an extremely difficult period for many.

“It’s fantastic to see even more businesses becoming finalists in the 18th annual awards with so many examples of incredible innovation, growth and resilience among our members in the entries, it gave our judges some tough decisions but also a great chance to shout about all the great things our region has to offer.

“We can’t wait to have everyone back under one roof next February to celebrate just how ambitious and outstanding our region is.”
