Biz Extra
Published: December 22, 2023 | Updated: 2nd January 2024
It’s been a busy (or bizzy?) first year at Hampshire Biz News!
We launched in April 2023 with an aim to build upon the great success of our sister site, Dorset Biz News, under the editorship of Andrew Diprose.
Biz News is all about championing local businesses of all shapes and sizes and the people behind them. We hope that’s shone through in our stories this year, and will continue to do so as we look to the new year.
We’d like to thank our readers, sponsors, and everybody who’s taken the time to share with us their tales of business success over the past eight months. Our door (and inbox) is always open should you have something great to shout about.
So, here’s to a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from all of us at Biz News! We’ll be back with a fresh round of stories on Thursday 4th January.
There’s only one thing left to do – and that’s to count down our top stories this year.
Without further ado…
