Brought to you by Metro newspaper and now in its second year, Venture Candy supports enterprise and innovation, transforming budding businesses into big brands.

The public gets to call the shots, voting for the people and the products they want to see succeed from a wide selection of entrants for different categories.

Venture Candy then rewards these talented, successful businesses with the exposure and profile they need to get ahead. The winners receive a host of valuable business assets ranging from mentorship, publicity, advertising, contacts and professional services, all of which give them the business foundations they need to grow.
