Application forms and materials will be made available during the nomination period each year.
The application process is a 2-stage process.
Stage 1 - Written application
The first stage in the application process involves a written application addressing the evaluation criteria on the application form.
Stage 1 evaluations are based on written applications only.
Stage 2 - Pitch presentation to the judging panel
Following the submission of the written applications, an evaluation panel for each category will evaluate eligible applications against the criteria and develop a shortlist for each category.
The final evaluation panel will select 4 finalists from each of the 2 categories:
- Emerging Innovation.
- Growth.
The 8 finalists and the unsuccessful applicants will be notified by email.
Finalists will present a 15-minute pitch to the evaluation panel, followed by 10 minutes of question and answer time.
Following the pitch presentations, the winners will be decided and announced at the awards ceremony.
