The finalists for the Northern Star Business Awards 2024 have been unveiled.
70 organisations from across the north-east have been shortlisted across 14 categories.
Aberdeen & Grampian Chamber of Commerce (AGCC) is behind the annual event and said the awards will be “the biggest business celebration of 2024”.
The award winners will find out at the ceremony taking place at P&J Live in Aberdeen on April 19.
Earlier this year, more than 800 people attended the 2023 awards with Port of Aberdeen landing the top honour.
AGCC chief executive Russell Borthwick said: “For us, Northern Star is the best night of the year.
“A unique stage to showcase and celebrate the brilliant work being done by businesses of all sizes, from all sectors, across our fantastic region.
“The companies in this area and pioneering, entrepreneurial and resilient, and will continue to be at the forefront of creating a bright economic future for the nation.”
Susie Mountain, partner at titles sponsor Brodies, said: “All of us at Brodies in Aberdeen are proud that we are the principal partner of the awards once again.
“We wish all of the finalists the best of luck at the awards ceremony next April.”
