The Great British Entrepreneur Awards has been celebrating the stories of exceptional entrepreneurs for over a decade.
The accolades don’t always go to the biggest businesses. We pride ourselves on celebrating incredible stories of passion, tenacity, courage, innovation and disruption from entrepreneurs running businesses of all sizes and at all stages.

The Great British Entrepreneur Awards, now in its 11th year, was established to celebrate and honour the exceptional stories of entrepreneurs who create and grow outstanding British businesses. Over the years, these awards have recognised numerous entrepreneurs who have gone on to become household names, including the founders of Grenade, Tangle Teezer, and Clearscore, among others. Described as the ‘Grammys of entrepreneurship’; the Great British Entrepreneur Awards ceremony is set to take place on the 20th of November 2023. This prestigious event brings together the most promising and inspiring entrepreneurs, providing them with a platform to showcase their achievements.
Jo Dalton, Founder and CEO of JD&Co, had this to say about our partnership:
“This will be my 8th year as part of the GBEA extended family and I am truly humbled to once again judge and now partner for this vital new “Investor of The Year Award”.
British entrepreneurs are having a really challenging time right now so it’s more important than ever to celebrate the investors behind the scenes who are committed to backing them, not just with considerable financial support but also with their experience, advice, mentorship and network.
For me, British entrepreneurship typifies what a brilliant mix of diverse minds and the bold ambitions of its founding team can achieve. GBEA plays a vital role in that and will do all I can to continue to support the ecosystem moving forward.”
The partnership between JD&Co and the Great British Entrepreneur Awards represents a shared commitment to supporting entrepreneurship and fostering the growth of exceptional British businesses. As the awards continue to recognise and celebrate the entrepreneurial spirit, JD&Co’s support will elevate the platform for inspiring stories of entrepreneurial success and innovation.
