The award was presented to The Chemistry Group’s founder and CEO, Roger Philby, by Lord Paddy Ashdown at a black tie gala dinner on 18 November at the Madjeski stadium on 18 November.
Simon Cooper, Head of Consulting at The Chemistry Group said: “We were delighted to win the SME of the Year. It was very generous of James Cowper to sponsor the award and we really enjoyed spending time with the judging panel when they came round to meet us. It is great to see a significant business like James Cowper looking to support growing businesses like Chemistry.”
Steve Clarke, Managing Partner at James Cowper added: “We were really impressed with the quality of the businesses that entered our SME of the Year Award category this year, which made our decisions for the short list extremely difficult. We would like to congratulate all of our finalists again and in particular our top three - The Chemistry Group, Mediplus and Well Pregnancy Products - all of which demonstrated that, despite the current economic landscape, there are still opportunities for great SME businesses to prosper in our region.”
