Dubbed the 'Winner of Winners', the Company of the Year Award is made up of first placers from our New Business, Small Businesses and Medium Business of the Year categories.
This award - sponsored by Whiting & Partners - is available to any company of any size which has scooped one of the above awards.
To enter our New Business of the Year Award - open to any company or sole trader - entrants must provide our judges a summery of their company's business plan.
Small Business of the Year entrants must outline their business; tell us if the business is profitable and what their plans for development are.
Finally, Medium Business of the Year entrants must explain how their company has adapted to changing markets and how it fits into its marketplace.
A full list of criteria is available on our website.
