Best in Biz Awards honors companies, teams, executives and products for their business success and is conferred in three programs covering the U.S. and Canada, EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) and International, respectively. Any company from any industry based in or operating in the awards program’s region may enter any of the more than 50 company, team, executive and product award categories.

Judges

Best in Biz Awards is unique as it is the only independent business awards program judged by members of the press and industry analysts. Each year, Best in Biz Awards assembles a top-notch judging panel to review and score all awards submissions. Having researched and covered numerous successful companies, the judges have the expertise to objectively evaluate the entry pool to choose the top companies, teams, executives and products from among the submissions.

Submission process

Submissions consist of three recommended parts and focus on summary of achievements and successes during the eligibility period (2012-2013), supporting hyperlinks and a short biography of the nominee. This simple submission process and high-profile judges from the media and analyst communities, bringing unique objectivity and extensive expertise, ensure all companies compete on an equal basis.

Entries in the North American awards program will be accepted starting May 20, 2013. Please note, however, that entries are currently being accepted in the inaugural Best in Biz Awards 2013 International.
