If you already have marketing and business plans then you’ll have a lot of the information already on hand to complete the entry form. If you do not have these documents, this is great opportunity to get all the information in your head on to paper. We know it may look daunting but adhere to the word counts and it will flow.

After the Awards are announced you will receive judges feedback which may assist you with understanding the highs and lows of your business. This will be in summary form following the more detailed feedback that may be given during the judges interviews.
The only people that see your entry are the awards coordinator and the three judges within your category. A summary of your entry is brought to the final judges table by them alone.
Finalists are expected to attend the Awards presentation on Friday 18 June 2021. It is an opportunity for you to celebrate with your peers and colleagues, so please consider this in your planning and budgeting.
Please ensure that one of your entry submission is received on or before Wednesday 31 March 2021. LATE ENTRIES WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.
