BathLive Business Awards finalists revealed for 2022

The finalists of the BathLive Business Awards 2022, sponsored by Truespeed, have been decided. The awards, which are run in association with SomersetLive and The Bath Chronicle newspaper, are set to return after a three-year break to recognise the achievements and resilience of the local business community.

Businesses of all sizes and across a range of sectors – from tech to hospitality to sports organisations to marketing – submitted nominations.

There were a range of categories available this year, recognising both individual and collective success, in the face of rising inflation and economic uncertainty.

It’s these efforts we will be celebrating at the awards ceremony at Bath Pavilion on September 29.

After lengthy deliberations, a panel of judges has now drawn up a list of finalists from all of the entries received.

The winners of 11 prizes will be announced on the night, including the recipient of this year’s Outstanding Contribution to Bath Award – which for the first time ever will be decided through a public vote.

Tickets to the awards cost £80 (plus vat) per person or £720 (plus vat) for a table of 10. The price includes a drinks reception, three course dinner and keynote speaker. To book, visit the event website.
