This prestigious award recognises inspiring business leaders across the South East region who have seen exponential growth whilst supporting their local communities and charities whilst bringing fresh ideas to their industry.
Matt said: “It’s an honour to be recognised as one of the South East region’s rising entrepreneurs, given the exceptional business leaders that were shortlisted. I’ve been in the industry for as long as I can remember, and the last few years have been challenging but incredibly rewarding for Creative Pod. We’ve gone from strength to strength and I’m excited to see what's in store for the future.”
Among his peers, Matt is known in the industry as a serial entrepreneur and philanthropist and amongst his team for being a mentor and a leader to follow. This award encompasses everything he has accomplished since launching his business from his bedroom in 2006.
This award comes weeks after one of his Senior MarketingExecutives, Sadie Chillingworth, was a finalist in the Dynamic Business Awards in the category of Young Professional of the Year and months after his Marketing Director, Sarah Lyons, took home the Employee of the Year award at the Gatwick Diamond Business Awards.
Matt said: “I’ve spent years building up my reputation in the local and wider community, and it’s great to be recognised for my success, but to see my team being recognised for their accomplishments as well makes all the hard work worthwhile!”.
Well done, Matt!
