Erika Percival, CEO Beyond Governance, said: “The past year has been a challenge for us all.

We look forward to the year ahead as we continue to grow in the post pandemic era”

Briege Leahy, CEO of Hertfordshire Chamber of Commerce, said: “Local businesses, large and small, are at the heart of the growth of our county and our annual awards ceremony is an opportunity to recognise business leaders’ hard work, innovation and contribution to Hertfordshire.

“Beyond Governance is an excellent example of a business set up with clear vision and a strong ethos. The business model is scalable in a high skilled, professional marketplace, clearly inspirational and a very promising new business.”

Accolades were handed out to companies of varying sizes, while the challenges faced by the business community over the last year were recognised with the Hertfordshire Heroes awards. These were given to a business, individual and charity which went above and beyond during the pandemic.
