2018 Dorset Business Awards Sponsors


Published: 15th June 2018



Enhanced is delighted to be sponsoring the Dorset Business Awards (DBA) for the first time. Now in its 24th year, the Dorset Business Awards is firmly established as the leading business recognition award on the south coast. The awards are extremely important to the business community and enable them to showcase Dorset as a place of innovation, entrepreneurship and community, helping to drive investment in the area and from those outside the county borders.

Enhanced is sponsoring a new category, The ScaleUp Award, aimed at growing businesses in the BH and DT postcode areas. Being a sponsor offers a great opportunity to market our own business and promote our brand, business and values throughout a comprehensive 6-month campaign. The event concludes in a prestigious, high-profile Gala Dinner on the 1st November 2018 at the Bournemouth International Centre.

After a very successful event launch at St Giles House, Wimborne St Giles, the nominating now begins and a hectic few months commence as some of the most successful companies are judged and winners selected for the Dorset Business Awards 2018.
