The Mail on Sunday’s feature, reproduced in the This is Money article focuses on Norfolk County Cottages’ use of cutting-edge technology to drive forward their business. The Mail on Sunday has a large circulation of 2 million copies each week and a readership of 5 million.

The Director magazine article featuresWarren Services, the Thetford based precision engineering manufacturer, which is working towards reducing its carbon footprint and energy bills.

Emma Finn, Director of Marketing for Shaping Norfolk’s Future said,

"This is a fantastic start to the campaign.

We aim to promote Norfolk’s business activities, especially those which are innovative and forward-thinking, to provide an opportunity for readers across the UK to learn from Norfolk’s pioneering companies."

Business Weekly, the prestigious regional business magazine has featured REV ACTIVE, the project which helps businesses to save money through reducing energy costs.

In mid-September, The Times will feature an article on NWES, the Norfolk-based business support organisation, and the positive impact of their policies for employees’ flexible/mobile working in reducing their carbon footprint.

In addition, the Financial Times and Daily Telegraph have agreed to look at examples of businesses, which have benefited from the project.

Emma added, "this builds on the of World Class Norfolk campaign, which successfully raised the profile of Norfolk as a great place to do business, live, work and visit."
