Final call for entries to Cambridge Independent Business Awards 2025

This is the final call for entries to the 2025 Cambridge Independent Business Awards.

Entry is free online at www.cambridgeindependentbusinessawards.co.uk - but hurry, nominations officially close at 11.59pm on Friday, 4 July.

Due to be held at the Great Hall at King’s College, the awards are now in their second year and celebrate all sectors and sizes.

There are categories for all sizes of business - small, medium and large - plus start-up and scale-up categories, along with awards for innovation, employers, social enterprises and collaboration, retailers and hospitality, plus apprentices/trainees. The Green Award will celebrate sustainability, while Business Person of the Year will go to an outstanding leader.

For the individual awards, people can nominate themselves or be nominated by others.

An expert panel of judges will meet later this month at the Bradfield Centre to discuss the entries and pick the winners, who will be revealed at the gala dinner on 25 September.

The awards benefit from the headline sponsorship of Barr Ellison, the Cambridge law firm, and are also sponsored by AstraZeneca, Cambridge BID, The Cambridge Building Society, Conscious Communications, Kale & Damson, Mantle and Pure.

Enter online here now, where you can find all the details and rules.
