The Small Business BC Awards is British Columbia’s largest awards competition dedicated exclusively to small businesses. What started as a simple business plan contest in 2003 has grown to an incredible opportunity for nominees to learn, secure financial support, gain valuable exposure, and share stories with a supportive community across the province. To celebrate our 20th anniversary, we’ll be returning to an in-person gala celebration where a $40,000 prize purse will be awarded to four winning businesses.
More than 6,000 BC businesses have been celebrated by the Small Business BC Awards over the last 20 years and we can’t wait to meet our 2023 winners. We hope you will partner with us to support the success of entrepreneurs throughout British Columbia.
