The Telstra Business Awards are a fantastic opportunity to recognise our hardworking small and medium sized businesses, and generous charities that operate in Tasmania.
The Awards are now in their 25th year, and nominations are now open for local Tasmanian businesses.
It is important that we celebrate the achievements of Tasmanian businesses and charities, which provide great services and experiences to local residents and visitors alike.
Tasmanian small businesses are the engine room of the State’s economy, with over 37,000 businesses employing over 100,000 Tasmanians.
Nominations are open year-round. Anyone can make a nomination for any of the five Award categories:
• New Business Award – operating for one to three years with up to 200 employees
• Micro Business Award – with five or fewer employees
• Small Business Award – with more than five and up to 20 employees
• Medium Business Award – with more than 20 and up to 200 employees
• Charity Award – ACNC registered with DGR status, between one and 200 employees and an annual income of between $250, 000 and $10, 000, 000
The Hodgman Government is a proud supporter of Tasmania’s business sector, and I would like to encourage businesses to nominate by visiting www.telstrabusinessawards.com/nominate
Entries close on 16 March 2017.
