B P Collins - celebrating ambition and innovation

Written by the team at B P Collins

At B P Collins, we are proud to once again sponsor the Enterprising Business of the Year category at the Buckinghamshire Business Awards, which is a celebration of the entrepreneurial spirit that drives our local economy. For many years, we’ve supported this prestigious category because it reflects the qualities we champion in our own firm – innovation, problem solving and a commitment to excellence.

Who we are

Founded in 1966, B P Collins is a multi-award-winning law firm offering expert legal advice to individuals, families and businesses. We’ve grown alongside many of the region’s most dynamic companies and are deeply committed to helping new businesses not just survive, but thrive. That’s why this year we launched a specialised employment service, tailored specifically for start-ups and growing enterprises. It’s designed to support new businesses through the legal challenges they face early on, so they can focus on doing what they do best - innovating and growing.

Why does B P Collins sponsor Enterprising Business of the Year?

Our passion for supporting entrepreneurship is one of the key reasons we sponsor the Enterprising Business of the Year Award. This category recognises businesses that are not only performing strongly right now but have ambitious plans for future expansion. These businesses are often led by forward-thinking teams that adapt quickly to market changes and stand out through their strategic approach, problem solving abilities, creativity, and impact in their sector.

Judging this category is one of the many highlights of our year. It gives us the opportunity to meet some of the region’s most exciting businesses and to hear their stories first-hand. Whether it’s a tech innovator disrupting, a creative agency expanding, or a local business offering the highest level of customer service, the common theme is a relentless drive to grow and improve. We’re always impressed by how entrants respond to challenges, whether adapting their offering during difficult trading periods, exploring new markets or investing in people and processes to drive sustainable growth.

B P Collins’ expertise

As lawyers, we often work closely with these businesses during critical stages of their journeys, from incorporation and IP protection to commercial contracts and employment requirements. That connection gives us a deep appreciation for what it takes to build a successful business from the ground up. It’s why we continue to champion this category and the incredible people behind each venture.

Each year, the finalists' ambition, resilience and vision are truly commendable. We’re honoured to play a role in recognising their achievements and we can’t wait to see how this year's cohort shape the future of business in Buckinghamshire and beyond.
