The best of Calderdale enterprise was celebrated last night at a packed awards evening held at The Venue, Barkisland.
The wide depth of activity across the district was represented in the nominations across several categories.
BBC presenter Clare Frisby hosted the event which she described as superb.
Jeremy Hall won the much coveted 2012 Lifetime Achievement Award.
He has been the driving force behind the transformation of Dean Clough into a business, arts and education complex which is one of the UK’s most shining examples of urban regeneration.
There was also double success for Tony Abbott of Reactiv Media.
He won Business Person of the Year and his company was judged Employer of the Year.
