“Businesses, regardless of size or industry, grapple with staffing challenges, and the awardees showcased how they’ve revamped their recruitment strategies to attract and retain talent,” Philp added. “It was heartening to witness the fervor for bolstering Ipswich and the substantial impact that numerous local enterprises have on the community through various programs and sponsorships.”
