Big news for tutor2u Economics - help!
5th September 2011
Some great news for everyone in the tutor2u office to kick off the new school year!. Smarta.com and O2 have today named tutor2u as a winner of the 2011 Smarta 100 awards: its collection of the “UK’s savviest, enterprising, most disruptive small businesses.”
Voting is now under way to find the overall O2 Smarta 100 Business of the Year.
This year’s Smarta 100 provides a fascinating snapshot of UK small business today: a cross-section of ingenious new ideas, individuals seeking self-employment after redundancy, the innovators of the cloud and crowd and the fast-growth big businesses of tomorrow. Oh, and tutor2u is in there too!!
We’re delighted to have been honoured by Smarta and O2, having battled through thousands of competition entrants.
Commenting on this year’s Smarta 100 winners, Dragons’ Den star Deborah Meaden said:
“This year’s Smarta 100 has uncovered some superb small businesses, many of which I’ll admit I’d never heard of but have enjoyed discovering and am very much looking forward to meeting. “What pleases me is that these awards are championing passionate and ambitious people with brilliant ideas who’ve acted on those ideas and turned them into flourishing businesses. These small businesses and individuals are hugely important and deserve our recognition and support.”
Simon Devonshire, General Manager, SMB for O2, said:
“The SMBs that have made the final shortlist are testimony to the dynamism and variety of businesses that are operating and flourishing in the UK . It will be fascinating to find out which companies win the categories and the O2 Award, which will act as a springboard for future growth.”
Ok - this is where Geoff and I need your help!
Voting for the overall O2 Smarta 100 Business of the Year is now live. The winner will be announced at The Smarta 100 Awards final on Wednesday 21st September at London’s IndigO2.
tutor2u is up against some tough competition - we really could use some support from our tutor2u Economics customers and supporters. Please could you vote for tutor2u here, and also leave a comment for the judges.
We’d really appreciate it…
