Yet again we were left in awe at the tremendous reactions from the Startups Awards. Here are some of the best tweets to give you a snapshot of the night
The Startup Awards was launched 12 years ago to celebrate and give recognition to the disruptive, exciting and courageous start-ups in the UK.
Every year we receive hundreds of entries, which are painstakingly riddled down to a list of finalists and then judged by leading entrepreneurs like Holly Tucker (notonthehighstreet.com), Jon Wright (Innocent Drinks) and David Buttress (Just Eat), as well as investors, business advisers and even a Dragon (Touker Suleyman).
With 16 categories up for grabs this year including longstanding awards like our Women in Business award and Innovative Business of the Year, we also included a couple of new accolades from Lean Start-up of the Year to our Rising Star Award.
And following a judging day filled with debate, on November 27 we announced the Startups Awards 2015 winners…

And the comradery, celebrations and overall atmosphere from the night was outstanding both at the event and across all our social channels.
So, to give all those who missed the event or who think they have what it takes to be a finalist next year a taste of what a fantastic evening it was, we’ve created a roundup of some of our favourite tweets from the night…
