🚀Celebrating Innovation at the Sussex Business Awards🌟 Last week, the Sussex Innovation team came together with the region’s most inspiring businesses at the Sussex Business Awards, where we proudly sponsored the Gamechangers Category. This award highlights companies that aren’t just making strides within their own walls but are driving innovation on a much larger scale! As our CEO, Nigel Lambe, put it: "Sussex Innovation has been working with the most innovative companies in Sussex for almost 30 years. This year, we wanted to do something different - not just looking for companies innovating in their own business, but gamechangers that are shifting industries and transforming lives. We found many incredible gamechangers across Sussex, as you can see from the amazing shortlist. The standout winner this year was Flare Audio Ltd. In a few short years, they’ve challenged conventional wisdom, developed groundbreaking products no one believed in, transformed the lives of hundreds of thousands of customers, and generated millions in revenue." Congratulations to Flare Audio Ltd, and all the inspiring finalists Fantasy Football Hub, Sea Lanes Brighton, ForLoop Ltd, and Long Man Brewery who are pushing boundaries and creating lasting change across Sussex!🎉 Here’s to celebrating the gamechangers leading the way to a brighter future!
