JESSICA GWARINGA , MD , MOONRISE 24HR RECRUITMENT Over the past decade , Tees Business has played an instrumental role in the Tees Valley . An unwavering commitment to highlighting local success stories , championing entrepreneurship and fostering collaboration has left a lasting imprint . The Tees Business team doesn ’ t simply report on business – it empowers it . Until two years ago , we at Moonrise were operating within our own bubble , focused on our work and largely unnoticed beyond our immediate circles . Thanks to Tees Business , that has changed . Its dedication has given businesses like ours a voice , visibility and a sense of belonging within the broader regional community . We are now recognised , valued and integrated into a thriving network of businesses in Teesside and beyond .
