Last night, the prestigious 2024 Growing Business Awards took place at the Hilton Bankside, bringing together the UK’s most innovative and fast-growing small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Widely regarded as the most coveted accolades for SMEs, the event honours businesses that exemplify exceptional growth, vision, sustainability, and resilience.
This year’s ceremony recognised outstanding achievements across various sectors, and Serve Legal’s CEO, Ed, played a special role as a judge for several awards. Having won multiple accolades in the past, including the 2022 Growing Business of the Year Award and the 2023 Customer Experience and Loyalty Award, Ed was honoured to evaluate the talent and innovation displayed in these same categories, by this year’s finalists.
Winners of the Growing Business of the Year award, Harper James, earned Ed’s praise as an exciting disruptor in the legal industry. Their approach prioritises value for money, hybrid and flexible working models, and inclusivity, creating a supportive environment for their staff and clients alike.
“It is great to see someone challenging the status quo in the legal world. Harper James is filling a crucial gap in the market, supporting SMEs and startups with essential legal services to foster their growth.” - Ed Heaver, CEO of Serve Legal
Pass Logistics stood out as clear winners, for Ed, as a result of their passion and authenticity. Their dedication to building personable relationships with clients and contractors, combined with a compelling growth story, earned them the position of Winners in this category.
“Pass Logistics’ care for their people and clients was evident. They exemplify what it means to grow a business with integrity and heart.” - Ed Heaver, CEO of Serve Legal
From Ed and the Serve Legal team, we share our congratulations to all the winners, and a special thanks to the organisers for another memorable evening celebrating the achievements of these exceptional businesses.
