Requirements
Nominees submit only once for the 2025 Halifax Business Awards (with one exception: Business Leader nominees may also apply in one other category for their organization). If you are nominated in multiple categories, choose the one that most applies.
If you are nominated multiple times in the same category, you only need to complete one submission.
Eligibility Requirements
- Nominees must have an active participation in a business located or operating in HRM. The majority of the business must have provincial ownership and headquarters must be located provincially.
- Please note: Individuals currently working for Crown Corporations/100% Government Funded Organizations are not eligible for this category.
By completing this submission, you confirm that you meet the eligibility criteria for the selected category and accept the nomination.
NOTE: We appreciate the work that goes into completing a submission, but only those selected as finalists will be notified of their status once judging is complete. Further, Due to the volume that we receive, we are unable to provide feedback on individual submissions once judging is complete.
