The London Chamber of Commerce and Industry SME London Business Awards crowned this year’s winners last night at a glittering black-tie evening at Leonardo Royal, Tower Bridge Hotel. Penta Consulting emerged as London’s highly anticipated Overall Winner.

The glamorous evening brought together some of the capital’s most remarkable businesses with up to 250 employees, where they networked and celebrated their collective successes.

Karim Fatehi OBE, CEO of the London Chamber of Commerce and Industry, commented:

“LCCI is proud to champion and celebrate the vital role of SMEs who drive innovation, create jobs, and fuel London’s prosperity through their diverse range of products and services.

“Amidst economic and geopolitical uncertainty, businesses across the city continue to demonstrate outstanding ingenuity and innovation. Our overall winner, Penta Consulting, exemplifies these qualities and I’d like to extend my heartfelt congratulations to them on their well-earned award.

“All the award winners have showcased remarkable business acumen, creativity and resilience, representing the gold standard of what London businesses are capable of. Congratulations not only to our winners, but to all SMEs contributing to making London a thriving and dynamic hub of opportunity.”

 

Each award category was meticulously assessed and scored by a panel of esteemed judges, who are all experts in their respective business fields. Amongst the criteria they looked for was outstanding initiative and imagination, as well as an additional ‘wow’ factor that really made entrants stand out against the competition.

Penta Consulting, alongside other Gold Winners from the evening, will be going through to the SME National Business Awards Grand Final in November.
