A NORTH-EAST business membership organisation has celebrated companies’ successes at an event.
The North East Chamber of Commerce (NECC) held its annual dinner at Middlesbrough’s Thistle Hotel.
The evening included speeches from Middlesbrough’s BBC Breakfast presenter Steph McGovern and Zoe Lewis, Middlesbrough College’s principal and chief executive.
James Ramsbotham NECC chief executive, said: “This was a celebration of all the great things that have been happening in the Tees Valley business community over the past year.
“It was also fantastic to hear Steph’s passion for promoting our region and highlighting the great work being done by our fantastic businesses.”
Ms McGovern added: “Whenever there is an opportunity to speak about the good work being done in the North East, I seize on it and never let anyone talk the region down.”
