Submission deadline is Sept. 15 for NH Business Review honors
The nomination deadline is Friday, Sept. 15, for NH Business Review’s 15th annual Business Excellence Awards.
The awards, which recognize the imagination, industriousness, innovation and achievements of business owners and operators in New Hampshire, will be presented in November at an evening reception at the Radisson Hotel in Manchester.
“The nomination period of our Business Excellence Awards is always an exciting time as we learn about and review the innovative work of both well-established businesses and newer companies just starting on their road to entrepreneurial success,” said Jeff Feingold, editor of NH Business Review. “New Hampshire’s business community is vital to the overall success of the state, and we are proud to honor individuals that strive for a prosperous New Hampshire for the fifteenth year.”
Categories for the 2017 Business Excellence Awards are:
• Business & Professional Services

Judges will evaluate submissions based on industriousness; innovation, vision and creativity; employee and customer relations; achievements and accomplishments; overcoming adversity or competition; overall success of company or organization; dedication to chosen profession; and community involvement.
