At 28, Mr Valente is taking his company to new heights with rapid expansion planned throughout the Midlands in 2018. Already covering over half of the UK, ImpraGas is set to rival British Gas by becoming the fastest growing boiler installation specialist in the UK.
Speaking about joining the elite group, Mr Valente said: 'I'm ecstatic to be representing the UK in the Forbes Europe 30 Under 30 selection. It's been my dream to be part of the Forbes family and to be recognised within Europe as one of the country's top young entrepreneurs is a privilege.
'2017 was a stellar year for us seeing our business expand at a tremendous rate; securing a place in the Startups Young Guns Class of 2017 and winning Boiler Installer of the Year were just some of the highlights. To have secured a place on the Forbes list is a great way to start 2018. The Joseph Valente Academy is launching this year, I've plans for a second book and more TV work.'
