Update - Best New Business 2009

Liverpool-based Greengrape Solutions won the Best New Business category in the 2009 Awards. Emma Loizidis, one of the company's founders said:

“The Morgan Foundation Entrepreneur Award was, for us, a chance to elevate our business and really celebrate our success in our first two years of business. We certainly did not expect to win! It was an exhilarating, educating and rewarding experience, one which we shall never forget.

Greengrape Solutions supports the recruitment, training and business needs of public and private providers delivering significant Welfare-to-Work programmes on behalf of central government. It develops bespoke solutions geared towards these organisations, which meet the needs of individual programmes, whilst also enhancing the prospects and opportunities of workless individuals.

Emma continued, “The prize enabled us to expand our existing team helping us to push our business forward, to market our services further and to tap into the expertise of some really inspirational and knowledgeable mentors. We would encourage anybody who is proud of their entrepreneurial achievement, to grab the opportunity with both hands and enter this year’s awards...you never know, you just might win!”
