Powys Business Awards now open


The 2015 Powys Business Awards competition is now open for entries. New categories have been added to the 2015 contest including Best New Tourism Venture, Apprentice Award and Best Use of Digital Technology.

Companies large and small are being encouraged to enter the awards, which celebrate excellence in business in the county and bring recognition in the local and regional business communities.
