SME London Business Awards
Following the success of London Chamber of Commerce and Industry Inaugural SME Business Awards in February 2024, we're delighted to announce that pre-launch entries are now open for 2025.
Business awards are a credible opportunity to support and share in our vision to raise the profile of industrious, hardworking and enterprising SME’s in the region. Awards are a sought after accolade of achievement, a veritable endorsement of success in business which offers exceptional marketing and PR opportunities as well as increasing your credibility and standing in the eyes of your peers and your customers.
SMEs from London are invited to apply. All entries are judged by up to 4 of our national panel of judges. If you want your business to shine, this is the best possible way to hit the spotlight.
About the SME London Business Awards
The awards celebrate the success, talent and dedication to be found amongst small businesses across the capital.
Firms of up to 250 employees are invited to enter into 19 different categories ranging from best entrepreneur to best young business leader, with the chance of winning either the Gold or Silver in their chosen category and the potential to be crowned as overall winner of the LCCI SME Awards.
Finalists will be invited to attend the black-tie awards night in February 2025 - a ceremony which promises celebration and entertainment.
