Celebrating Excellence: The Eastbourne Business Awards 2024

In the heart of East Sussex lies a community alive with entrepreneurial spirit and ingenuity. Here, businesses both small and large have created the best place to live, work and play in the UK!
Here's how:

  1. Eastbourne is recognised as the best connected town in the UK with average broadband speeds of over 700 mbps up and down-load speeds.
  2. With beautiful beaches and stunning countryside, Eastbourne offers great work / life balance attracting talented business people and investment to the area.
  3. But most importantly, East Sussex has the most positive enterprise culture because we all work together to overcome barriers to business and grow the local economy.

Whether you are a sole trader or a multi-national company, these business awards highlight not only the exemplary achievements of individual business people but also the collective impact of our joint business community. So we come together each year to celebrate the innovation, leadership, and commitment to social responsibility of the local businesses who drive our region forward and shape its future.

Welcome to the Eastbourne Business Awards – where excellence knows no bounds, and the possibilities are endless.
