Netmatters Announced as Double Winners in the 2020 Norfolk Business Awards!

Despite the fact the current circumstances meant the traditional awards ceremony for the 2020 Norfolk Business Awards was swapped for a, no-less exciting, virtual announcement! Netmatters were absolutely thrilled on Tuesday to be announced as winners for not 1 but 2 categories in the awards!

Whilst no one would claim that 2020 has been easy for businesses here in the region, the business awards have gone out of their way to help showcase some of the resilience, flexibility and tenacity demonstrated by businesses all over Norfolk this year. 

Here at Netmatters we were proud to be shortlisted for 2 categories – Investing In Future Growth and Skills of Tomorrow. Sponsored by Lovell, the investing in future growth award is designed to celebrate those businesses that are making investments for the future, whether that is in people or technology. The sponsors for the Skills of Tomorrow award were Norwich Research Park and they were looking for an organisation that is doing what it can to equip the next generation with both the right skills and attitude to meet the challenges of tomorrow.

It means so much to us here to not only have been shortlisted for these awards, but to win them both:

“These awards show just how resilient and agile our business can be. The work that goes into both the Scion Scheme and the every day work here at Netmatters is amazing. Our people do us proud every day, it means so much to be able to accept these awards on behalf of every single member of staff here” - James Gulliver, Managing Director.

Alongside the silverware for the awards we were also named as one of the finalists of The Business Of The Year category. This is a non-entry category and the finalists for this award are chosen from those businesses who are finalists and winners in the other categories in the awards. The worthy winners for this category were TaxAssist and we would like to congratulate them and the other finalists – Cornwall Insight and Abel Homes – for a fantastic year!
