The fastest growing firms in Kent gathered this morning for the unveiling of the MegaGrowth 50 list - and the event proved, once again, to be a big hit and networking success.

And as our special gallery below shows, there were plenty of smiles as representatives picked up their certificates during a breakfast event at The Orangery at Turkey Mill in Maidstone.

Hosting the event was Nicola Everett, head of multi-media at event organisers the KM Group, and a newsreader on commercial radio station kmfm.

Certificates were presented by the event's sponsors - asb law, Lloyds Bank and Kreston Reeves.
