Enterprise Vision Awards (EVAs)
Enterprise Vision Awards (EVAS) 2024 – 2026
Christine Nichols was awarded the Outstanding Achievement Award at the 2024 Enterprise Vision Awards (EVAS).
Christine’s achievements, both personally and in business, were recognised by the judges and deemed worthy of a special award at the ceremony held at The Empress Ballroom in Blackpool on Friday 27th September 2024.
The EVA Awards are the UK’s largest business awards dedicated solely to women, championing those shaping the future of entrepreneurship. These awards celebrate women who are building businesses, creating positive impact and making a real difference in their communities.
Following this recognition, Christine’s ongoing contribution to entrepreneurship and the EVA community continued to grow. In 2025 she was named an EVA Icon, a distinction awarded to past winners who continue to make a significant national impact and support the EVA mission.
Atlantic Pacific Group proudly sponsored the Retail Award at the 2025 Enterprise Vision Awards, with Christine serving on the judging panel across the full awards programme and presenting the Retail Award on the night. Atlantic Pacific will continue this partnership as a sponsor again in 2026.
In May 2026, Christine will also take part in a panel discussion at the House of Lords alongside Theo Paphitis (Dragons’ Den), contributing to national conversations around female entrepreneurship, leadership and business growth.
The EVA Awards ceremony has become more than an event; it is a celebration of female entrepreneurship at its finest shining a spotlight on exceptional finalists and recognising remarkable achievements across the UK.
