'Good evening everyone, I’m so excited to be here presenting the entrepreneur award,' Harper said.
'Especially as tonight is a school night. And hopefully this isn't going to get me into trouble.
'The winner is someone I have always looked up to. She’s built an incredible business from the ground up and has showed me the value of working hard, dreaming big and setting my standards.
'She’s taught me so much about what it takes to succeed. But above all else she’s taught me to always be kind and even though she has a million things to do, she rarely misses school.
'Tonight I am so proud to present the Entrepreneur Of The Year award to a truly inspiring woman who means the world to me, my amazing mummy, Victoria Beckham.'
Entering the stage to accept her award, Victoria said to Harper: 'I am so, so proud of you.
'Getting up on stage in front of a room full of people is scary and you did it with such poise and such elegance.
'I am so proud of the young lady you have become. You keep me grounded and inspire me every day.
'You teach me to see the world through fresh eyes. And as busy as I am, being a mum is the most important job to me. So thank you.'

Speaking about protecting her privacy, she said: 'You have to go through those times to make you, ultimately, who you are. We've kind of figured out how to be quite discreet, which is just how we want to conduct our lives right now.
'I suppose it used to be fun to go out and be chased by paparazzi walking down Bond Street – and you would dress knowing you were going to get that. I don't want that any more.'
'I've been doing this too long. I suppose I did when I was growing up but, nowadays, there's just too much going on; too busy; too many kids to worry about. I woke up at 50, and I gave a s*** less.'
Harper has already made it known she wants to follow in the footsteps of her fashion designer mother and hopes to create an 'amazing brand' when she's older.
And it appears her famous parents are edging her one step closer by setting up a business to funnel any future earnings for the rising star.
Discussing Harper's upcoming appearance in her new Netflix documentary, she said: 'It's slightly more targeted on the entrepreneur, the designer of the brand. It's not going to be as personal. I realise that I am a bit of a travelling circus, even when I'm at work, but this is very fashion-focused.
'And, obviously, there'll be elements of the kids, you know – Harper's going to come in on Monday and do her fitting for the show.
'So they'll film that. But it's really shining a light on the business, especially for America. That's the main reason for doing this.'
