Backstage at the TN Awards
Backstage at the TN Awards brings you short conversations with the winners of the Tonbridge Business Awards, Tunbridge Wells Business Awards and Sevenoaks District Business Awards, hosted by The TN Awards Company.
Recorded fresh off stage on each awards evening, we spend five minutes with each worthy winner as they leave the stage, capturing the excitement, emotion and stories behind some of the region’s most inspiring businesses and business owners.
Produced and recorded by Nick Bryant from Brilliant Businesses, these interviews celebrate the people, passion and achievements driving local business success across the TN region.
