•  ORESA will be partnering with the British Business Excellence Awards, sponsoring the Leader of the Year category
• The Leader of the Year award will now be known as the ORESA Leader of the Year
• Growth Index, a rigorous and independent analysis created by ORESA, will be used to select the winner of the Leader of the Year

The British Business Excellence Awards (www.britishbusinessexcellenceawards.co.uk) have today announced that ORESA will be joining the team, sponsoring the Leader of the Year category for the upcoming 2022 awards.  

ORESA are business growth specialists, who’s strategic thinking and powerful placements enable the industry leaders of tomorrow to revolutionise business practices today. The growth architects specialise in digital, retail and consumer businesses – working with established scale-ups like GymShark and global players like JD Sports. With ORESA’s experience and expertise in recognising leaders across a spectrum of business specialties, sponsoring the Leader of the Year Award could not be more fitting.

ORESA are also the pioneers behind the Growth Index, an independent, rigorously researched definitive list of the UK’s top 100 fastest growing businesses based on impartial analysis and financial data. The Growth Index will be used to independently analyse finalists throughout the nomination process, ultimately selecting a winner based on objective merit.

As the Lloyd’s Bank British Business Excellence Awards enters its second year, ORESA will be sponsoring the Leader of the Year category, with the award henceforth known as the ORESA Leader of the Year Award.

The British Business Excellence Awards is the elite business awards programme for businesses of all shapes and sizes. The awards are hosting a year-long programme of networking events, round tables and exemplary judging processes, all of which will then culminate in a spectacular ceremony on Tuesday 8th November 2022 at the Grosvenor House Hotel, London. 

UK-based businesses can register their interest in entering the awards via https://enter.britishbusinessexcellenceawards.co.uk/, with the deadline being extended to July 14th 2022.

Orlando Martins, Founder and CEO of ORESA and Growth Index, comments:

“A part of good leadership is the recognition of other great leaders. This is why this year ORESA are delighted to be supporting and sponsoring the Leader of the Year Award at the UK’s top business honours, the British Business Excellence Awards.

“Great companies have the potential to change the world, and strong leaders drive great companies. But defining a good leader isn’t simply a one size fits all, binary classification – it is a strategic process that all too often has been rushed in pursuit of a quick turnaround over a long-term adherence to a vision.

“ORESA and, by extension, the Growth Index, champion the true leaders of industry and look forward to continuing to lead from the front as the UK’s growth architects for business.”

Sarah Austin, Founder & Director of the Lloyd’s Bank British Business Excellence Awards, commented on the announcement: 

“In a time where we are bereft of strong leadership from the upper echelons of our country, it is fitting that we partner with the specialists in sourcing the industry’s best and brightest leaders of business. Having a partner that so closely supports and bolsters business across the country, emphasising the top-to-bottom approach to business transformation, makes for a more than welcome addition to the team. 

“With levelling up, the great resignation and the uncertain nature of how incumbent political leadership may sway the winds of prosperity for business long term, there has seldom been a greater time to champion our cause and reflect on what truly has been an ‘against the odds’ effort from businesses this year.

“The Lloyd’s Bank British Business Excellence Awards looks to celebrate the resilience, innovation, and guile of British business. The awards are currently open for entry, with an extended deadline of July 14th 2022. Enter here before the cut-off and let’s celebrate everything that makes British business what it is.”
