Nominations for the 2018 Peak Connect Carillon Business Awards open on Monday with 19 categories aimed at recognising the best of the best.
The awards showcase excellence in: business leadership, entrepreneurship, social enterprise, sustainability, innovation, export, business growth and employment practices.
Business awards sub committee chair Stephen Harper said this year’s awards are easier to enter than ever before.
“There’s four standard questions for every category and one question specific to that category,” he said.
“It’s a simplified process this year, you can save it [your entry] and go back to it and start again.
“You can enter as many categories as you like.”
Mr Harper said changes to the awards were introduced due to feedback from entrants and business during the past few years.
We’re looking for those businesses that are doing great things that people don’t know about.

“We’re looking for great businesses, favourite employees or someone with good customer service.
