The Better Business Networks PIONEERS OF THE YEAR AWARD!
In collaboration with Avery & Brown and OPEN Media UK, The Better Business Network created the Better Business Pioneers campaign, shining a spotlight on Individuals who embody the spirit of positive change within their workplaces and communities.
These are the unsung heroes we like to call “Better Business Pioneers.” They understand that even the smallest actions can set in motion profound change. From advocating for sustainable workplace policies to generously sharing their skills with local charities, these pioneers illustrate how each of us holds the power to shape a brighter future.
Today we recognise and celebrate two extraordinary Better Business Pioneers who have made a lasting impact for creating and sponsoring the People Planet Pint concept.
Adam Bastock, Founder of Small 99
Simon Blackler, Founder of Krystal Web Hosting
The campaign spanned across 14 outdoor billboards in 8 cities nationwide and was seen by over 3 and half million people, as well as sparking a huge amount of nominations and engagement across social media.
