Birmingham Post

A wealth of support for firms with vision

- Tamlyn Jones Business Reporter

THE Birmingham Post Business Awards has welcomed sponsors from a whole host of industries – and now it has secured Andrew Whiting Wealth Consultanc­y as a headline sponsor.

The Solihull-based firm is a senior partner practice of St James’s Place Wealth Management and manages clients – both businesses and individual­s – across the country.

From preserving and building capital, to reducing inheritanc­e tax liability, the practice has been providing high-quality services for more than 20 years.

This is the first time the practice has associated itself with the awards and senior partner Andrew Whiting explained the reasoning behind the sponsorshi­p debut.

“We chose to associate ourselves with the Birmingham Post Business Awards as it’s undoubtedl­y one of the most prestigiou­s and respected recognitio­n award ceremonies in the region,” he said.

From brand exposure and networking opportunit­ies, to meeting up-and-com- ing entreprene­urs, these are just some of the benefits that come with attending the awards.

But, outside event, comes benefit to the too.

Mr Whiting said: “The awards have a far-reaching impact which is impossible to ignore. They highlight regional success and endorse the West Midlands as an innovative and successful region for business.”

Business is competitiv­e by nature and, while these awards see businesses all gunning for the win, there is always a feeling of camaraderi­e in the air no matter the result, as the business community comes together for one evening to support and praise one another’s successes.

Supporting other businesses is something Mr Whiting also sees the importance of, adding: “Endorsemen­t and peer group recognitio­n of all the risk, courage, persistenc­e and hard work that it takes to be successful, both as a business or in our category as Entreprene­ur of the Year.

“To have an idea and a vision and to be prepared with all the associated risks to make it into a reality.” of the great region
