Think Hire Wins Innovation Award at North West Business of the Year 2025

More than 400 guests gathered at The Midland, Manchester, on Wednesday evening (15 October) to celebrate the region’s most successful and forward-thinking companies at TheBusinessDesk.com’s North West Business of the Year Awards.

Think Hire, a division of Think Energy Group, was proudly shortlisted in two categories – Fast Growth and Innovation – and took home the Innovation Award, recognising the company’s pioneering approach to sustainable energy solutions for various sectors.

The award highlights Think Hire’s commitment to helping businesses transition to clean, off-grid energy through practical, data-led technology that delivers measurable results in reducing emissions, fuel use, and operational costs.

The spirit of the evening was perfectly captured by guest speaker Emma Degg, Chief Executive of the North West Business Leadership Team, who said:

“The North West has always been my beacon, because you celebrate the heretics, those who say ‘why not?’ and don’t ask why.”

Her words reflected the mindset that drives companies like Think Hire, challenging convention and proving that innovation and sustainability can go hand in hand.

Michael Taylor, North West Editor of TheBusinessDesk.com, congratulated all finalists and winners, noting:

“We have in place a rigorous judging process which really put all of those shortlisted through their paces. The judges heard incredible stories of resilience and innovation, and how the spirit of togetherness and fairness runs through so many businesses.”

The Innovation Award, sponsored by The Business Grid, recognised Think Hire’s work in delivering cleaner, smarter energy systems, from solar hybrid power solutions to intelligent battery storage and real-time energy management platforms.

Winning this award is a testament to the company’s mission to accelerate the shift towards renewable energy and help clients achieve immediate, measurable sustainability results across every project.
