Andrew Dakers, Chief Executive of West London Business, and a member of the judging panel said;
“This marks the thirteenth year of the West London Business Awards, and I am proud that the calibre of entries and shortlisted businesses and entrepreneurs goes from strength to strength. As usual, our judges had many tough decisions to make from a range of high-quality entries which reflects the ever-changing face of business in our area. We are seeing more international and entrepreneurial organisations setting up shop in West London and we are confident this year’s shortlist reflects that diversity.
