Young guns in running for top prize

THEY are three young shining stars who are already blazing a trail in the business world – and one of them will be crowned Young Business Person of the Year at a prestigious awards event.

Michaela Hamilton, Dmitrijs Meiksans, and La-Toyah McKenzie all impressed the judges to make the final cut and now they are each hoping to claim the top prize.

Susan Paterson, director of category sponsor Minuteman Press, said: “This was another very competitive category, and it was inspirational to hear what the three finalists have already achieved so early in their business careers.

“Each of the finalists should be proud of making it to the awards evening and congratulations go out to all of them.”

Thursday, July 13 is the date for the diary and The Anvil in Basingstoke will be the place to be as people and businesses from Basingstoke and Deane, Rushmoor and Test Valley compete for the winner’s prize in 11 categories.

Award-winning adventurer Jordan Wylie MBE – star of hit series Hunted and Celebrity Hunted – will be a VIP guest and compere at this year’s awards.
