In addition to categories for different sizes of business (small/medium/large and scale-up) and sectors (including hospitality and retail), there are awards for Business Person of the Year and Apprentice/Trainee of the Year. The Green Award will celebrate sustainability, while other awards celebrate innovation, collaboration, social enterprises and employers.

Entrants can nominate themselves, or be nominated by others.

Editor Paul Brackley, who will chair the judging panel, said: “It has been great to see many excellent entries coming in already. These awards are a chance to have the work of your team recognised and celebrated.”
