llustrator and greeting card publisher Jo Couch has been named as a finalist in the UK’s Enterprise Vision Awards
Jo, who is based in North Lincolnshire, is a finalist in the Theo Paphitis #SBS Small Business category at the 2026 Enterprise Vision Awards, the UK’s largest celebration of women in business.
She said: “I am so honoured to be a finalist and to stand alongside such wonderful and inspiring women entrepreneurs. Being a finalist in the SBS category is especially meaningful as SBS have been there at the start of my business journey, winning the Small Business Sunday award back in 2023 and more recently the Spring Fair Tradeshow Stand back in February this year, which has transformed my business beyond words.
My work is all about bringing my imagination to life and using storytelling through greeting cards to help people connect and celebrate moments in life. The fact I get to do this as a career while also being recognised for my work, is something I’m incredibly grateful for.”
The Enterprise Vision Awards recognise outstanding women entrepreneurs across the UK. Finalists are selected through a rigorous application and judging process, with the ceremony taking place in October.
