Apparently no expense has been spared and the event will have a stunning Hollywood theme complete with the red carpet treatment.
There’ll be all American cuisine and dazzling entertainment.
New Chamber President Steve Porter commented “The number and quality of entrants for this year’s Chamber Business Awards is a real credit to the local business community. I know that the selection panel would have had an incredibly difficult task to narrow the entries down to the shortlist. As ever, the awards night promises to be a fantastic occasion for everyone, a reminder of just how forward looking and entrepreneurial the Island is.”
You can have a piece of the action, well see it in person from your table, if you snatch up some tickets for the event, which are priced at £45 each or £405 for a table of ten. They’re selling very quickly we’re told.
Latest news on ticket availability can be obtained from the Chamber office by calling 01983 520777.
The awards are sponsored by Affinity Media, Jobs@Pertemps and The Isle of Wight County Press.
