About the Awards
Formerly known as the “Successful You Awards,” our Awards are celebrating their 18th year in 2021. Once a simple business planning contest, our awards have evolved over the years to a large-scale provincial competition with a reputation for prestige and excellence among the BC small business community.

How it works
Once nominated, businesses engage with their community to gather as many votes as possible before our deadline on March 8, 2021. The top 5 businesses in each category with the most votes and best applications will move on to the next stage of the contest, where they’ll pitch their business to a panel of business experts.
In a typical year, our event would climax with a gala award ceremony where we toast the success of our small business community. As we continue to navigate the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, our award ceremony will be held virtually in 2021 over several days. We’ll have more information to share on how it will work in the coming weeks.
