Businesses have until the end of the bank holiday weekend to get their entries in for the LincolnshireLive Business Awards 2022.
The deadline has been extended until Sunday August 30th to allow companies in the county an extra opportunity to be in the running for the awards, ahead of a glamorous black-tie dinner ceremony in October when the winners will be announced.
The awards ceremony will be held for the first time since 2019, and as such are a major opportunity for the Lincolnshire business community to come together in person to toast the best and brightest companies and people in the county.
In association with the Lincoln Chamber of Commerce , the Lincolnshire Live Business Awards aims to recognise and reward outstanding contributions to commerce and industry over the past 12 months.
Split over 12 categories, the awards include prizes for companies of all sizes, including those Lincolnshire-based businesses that have achieved national and international success, as well as remarkable individuals and budding entrepreneurs in the county.
The deadline for entries has been extended to 5pm on August 30th to give any business yet to enter a chance to be in the running, and here is all the information you need to get your entry in.
As well as the potential to win some of the prizes on offer, entry into the awards provides many benefits to a company. Testimonials from previous entrants show that just being a part of the awards is a boost to recruitment and retention, and raises the profile of a company.
All winners will be revealed at a special black-tie dinner to be held at the Lincolnshire Showground on Thursday 20th October.
