Nominations are now open for the 2026 Capricorn Best in Business Awards, and if you’ve been thinking about entering—or nominating a deserving business, organisation or individual—now is the perfect time to get started.
One of the biggest misconceptions is that entering an award takes hours or even days. We know businesses are time poor, so the nomination process has been designed to be as efficient as possible, with concise questions and 400-word limits that allow you to focus on your key achievements rather than lengthy submissions.
Our top tip? Don’t overthink it. Focus on sharing what makes you, your business or your nominee stand out. Whether it’s exceptional customer service, innovation, leadership, business growth or community impact, providing specific examples will help create a stronger nomination.
A few frequently asked questions:
- Who can nominate? Anyone can submit a nomination, including businesses, customers, employees, colleagues and community members.
- Can I nominate myself? Absolutely.
- Is there a cost? No, nominations are free.
- Can I submit more than one nomination? Yes, you can nominate multiple businesses or individuals.
Nominations close on Wednesday, 30 September 2026, so don’t leave it until the last minute.
If you’re unsure which category best suits your nomination or have questions about the process, the Capricorn Best in Business Awards team is here to help.
