In a packed venue at the Bolton Reebok Stadium, Imerja was delighted to be named as SME of the Year at the Bolton & Bury Business Awards for 2008.

The SME category was the most contested of all the awards at this year’s event, with close to 40 nominations being submitted. The final shortlist included three successful and locally based IT businesses, which is a sign in itself of the opportunities the region has to offer business in terms of the underlying infrastructure and also the availability of locally based skills and expertise to support sustainable growth in an increasingly hi-tech world.

Imerja’s Managing Director, Ian Jackson commented after receiving the award “I am really proud of our achievement – winning this award is testament to the commitment and efforts of everyone in the business. Winning will undoubtedly raise our profile as a leading Lancashire business, helping to attract new customers as we continue to invest in our development in the region and attract local talent to underpin our growth.”
