Matter is a proud finalist in the Greenwich Business Awards

It was a real honour to find ourselves shortlisted in the Best of Royal Greenwich Business Awards 2022, alongside such an impressive list of fantastic local businesses. We were particularly thrilled to be Digital Award finalists, recognised for our use of digital technologies to improve our service, raise awareness and better serve our customers.

Supporting our Greenwich community

Matter is delighted to have found a home in the heart of Greenwich’s Design District. We love collaborating with local architects and businesses, working with local suppliers, and supporting inspirational community projects like CodyDock.

Our founder, Christina, is proud to have been an important part of the design team for the iconic Ravensbourne University building – a standout on the Greenwich Peninsula.

It’s great to be recognised for what we try to achieve, working with the local community. I really enjoyed the awards ceremony and the opportunity to connect with so many great local businesses. We’re privileged to be shortlisted among all these companies.

Growing our business with digital

At Matter, we pride ourselves on our efficiency. Our financial planning means we have a lean operating structure without redundancy, and our use of digital tools to track our processes, time and performance enables us to make continual improvements to our business. That commitment to keep on improving and evolving is an important part of our core values.

 It's our efficiency that makes it possible for us to offer discounted rates for good causes, putting our expert services within reach of charities, non-profits and community organisations. We take on a broad range of projects that vary in size and complexity and always strive to deliver elegant, creative designs with social and environmental value.

Celebrating our progress

It’s really exciting to be shortlisted for the Digital Award in the Best of Royal Greenwich Business Awards. Organised by Greenwich Council in association with U+I and supported by the South East London Chamber of Commerce, these awards celebrate local businesses that have made an outstanding contribution to the borough.

 The Digital Award is a new category that recognises businesses making best use of digital technologies to improve processes, raise awareness, reach new markets, better serve their customers and add competitive advantage. We’re still learning when it comes to digital, and we’re very happy to have made an impression in this space!

Taking pride in our work

We continue to support our local community. We’re especially proud of our recent work with the Cody Dock community in Canning Town, where we designed the visitor centre and wash block, both currently under construction. Keep an eye on our blog for an update on this project - coming soon.

 

Thank you to everyone who’s worked with Matter and been part of our journey so far.

 

We’re excited to see what the next year brings!
