THE Ipswich Region Chamber of Commerce is proud to announce that submissions are now open for the 2026 Business Excellence Awards, celebrating the outstanding achievements, innovation, and resilience of businesses across the region.
This year’s theme, Authenticity and Confidence, recognises businesses that lead with purpose, embrace their unique identity, and back themselves in an increasingly competitive and evolving business landscape.
With 15 award categories on offer, businesses of all sizes and industries are encouraged to enter and showcase their success.
The awards provide a valuable opportunity to elevate business profiles, recognise team contributions, and connect with the broader Ipswich business community.
Ipswich Chamber President David Wiltshire said the awards were an important platform for recognising the strength and diversity of the local business community.
“The Business Excellence Awards are more than just recognition – they’re an opportunity for businesses to reflect on their journey, celebrate their achievements, and share their story,” Mr Wiltshire said.
“Entering the awards can be a powerful experience. It not only highlights the incredible work being done across our region but also helps businesses build confidence, gain exposure, and stand out in their industry.
“I encourage all eligible businesses to take part and showcase what makes them exceptional.”
Businesses can submit entries across multiple categories, with a separate submission required for each.
Submissions are now open, and all eligible businesses are encouraged to take part and be recognised for their contribution to the Ipswich region.
