I'm absolutely delighted. This is the award we came to win tonight so we are really happy. We are back at work early tomorrow but it won't stop us having a great evening!
Andrew O'Brien Managing Director
I'm really proud of the all the team. It has been a united effort. We all worked together to come to this conclusion. It's definitely great news and we are delighted to have won this award.
Maisie Bulloch Net Zero and Sustainability Co-ordinator
This is absolutely fantastic. To achieve this in your own city as a spin-out of the university is incredible for us, and to get this recognition is brilliant. It's a great testament to the team.
Dave McConachie Chief Commercial Officer
We are thrilled to bits. We have quietly done lots of things for many years but what we've done now is let people know about how we nurture and support talent.
James Haworth General Manager
This is fantastic. We do a lot of work to bring young people through the business with entry-level jobs and we try to develop their skills and give them opportunities to really make something of themselves.
Justine Scullion Business Strategy Manager
We have a really tight team at SWG3 and we have been working hard on improving our environmental impact and I must give credit to Step Up to Net Zero, Glasgow Chamber's green initiative.
Alison Fullerton Strategic Impact Lead
It is great to receive this recognition as making bus travel attractive to young people is not an easy task. We want to get the under 22s into the habit of using the bus and not buying a car as early as they used to do.
Craig Dennett PR Manager
I'm delighted. It's always fantastic to get recognised in your home city. We do a lot across the UK and beyond, but this being a Glasgow award, makes us very proud.
Anthony Burns Chief Operating Officer
I'm delighted and a bit shocked. I'm never sure if people understand what we do from an innovative point of view - the sanitation of garments and killing of pathogens.
Michael Cusack Head of Sustainability
I'm Glasgow born and bred and I was absolutely delighted to get nominated. But to win the award is simply fantastic. However, I couldn't have won it without the staff.
Cain Fleming Director
I'm absolutely elated. I can't believe it. It's just amazing to be recognised as a small business and as Entrepreneur of the Year. This will open so many doors. It's brilliant and I am so happy.
Victoria Nicol Managing Director
We are in the events industry and certain things have to be done to make things happen. But to really focus on bringing down the use of carbon is important while making it about the community.
Meryl Gilbert Arts and Business Director
I'm absolutely overwhelmed. This is an accolade for all of our staff and it will be an inspiration to all those who have joined us and know that we are striving to do our very best for the business and also for Glasgow's people.
Gerry Docherty Managing Director
This means everything for our people to realise they are making such a contribution which is recognised. Our people are doing an amazing job for those with disability issues.
Steven Faul Technology Director
It is a fantastic reward for the whole Waverley team. The public's support for Waverley is wonderful and the award illustrates the affection so many people have for the last of the great Clyde paddle steamers.
Paul Semple General Manager
I'm collecting this on behalf of all the other people who have made ACS Clothing such a Glasgow success story. For us it is the people who are more important than anything we do.
Anthony Burns Chief Operating Officer
I'm very honoured and very chuffed. I'm a bit surprised too. It's a very nice accolade and also recognition for the SEC and all it has achieved over the last 40 years.
Peter Duthie Past CEO of Scottish Event Campus (SEC)
