The Gold Coast Business Excellence Awards are the region's leading honours for business achievements.
Each month, awards are presented in 10 categories. At the end of the year, all the monthly winners vie for annual awards in each category and compete for the Business of the Year Award honour at a black-tie Gala Awards Dinner, to be held on 10 November 2018 at The Star Gold Coast.
Entries are due by 5:00pm on the 1st of each month from May to October inclusive. Where the 1st of the month falls on a weekend or a public holiday, entries will be due on the first working day after the weekend or public holiday.
