The Dorset Business Awards celebrates and honours the very best of Dorset business. The objective of the Awards is to promote the talent, skills and services of any Dorset business to a local and national audience.

The awards are the most prestigious awards programme on the south coast and enables businesses of all sizes and sectors to showcase their business achievements and align with other successful organisations. Produced by the Dorset Chamber of Commerce and Industry, this annual event aims to celebrate the Dorset business community and support the local economy.

The awards are about the ambition of Dorset businesses and the spirit of the people behind them. Together we succeed.

Each of the 12 categories have been strategically curated to effectively represent Dorset’s business community and to encourage action on key business issues by honouring innovation and by showcasing inspiring examples from around the region.

From our categories the Awards will be shortlisting 36 finalists through a rigorous judging process, culminating in the prestigious Gala Dinner and Award Ceremony on the 28th November where more that 650 esteemed guests will be in attendance.
