Since 2007, the European Business Awards has been shining a light on the most innovative businesses on the continent by promoting success, innovation and ethics in the European business community.
Held annually and now in its 11th year. Last year it engaged with over 33,000 businesses from 34 countries. Sponsors and partners include RSM, ELITE, PR Newswire, SDL Managed Translation and Sysdoc. The Awards showcase the best in class with entries from a diverse range European Nations and industries including pharmaceutical, engineering, fashion, cosmetic, online businesses, manufacturing and transport.
Companies that enter compete in one of the 12 categories of the European Business Awards to become a National Winner in their country. If successful, they will then take part in the grand final in May 2018, where the final 12 European winners will be announced. They will also have the chance to enter a public vote, which engages with people from across the globe, promoting their business to new markets and potential customers.
Businesses who enter the National Awards are eligible to be entered into the “One’s to Watch” awards – To make it on to the ‘Ones to Watch’ list companies will have demonstrated exceptional achievement in one of the 12 European Business Awards’ categories and reflect the programme’s core values of innovation, success and ethics.
The European Business Awards’ primary purpose is to support the development of a stronger and more successful business community throughout Europe and serves the European business community in three ways:
• It celebrates and endorses individuals’ and organisations’ success
• It provides and promotes examples of excellence for the business community to aspire to
• It engages with the European business community to create debate on key issues
