Each year, people from across the North Shore come together to honour business excellence. The awards were created to publicly recognize successful companies in North Vancouver that continually demonstrate excellence in business and a passion for their community.

 

The Awards also promote the advancement of responsible business leadership and harmony within our community. Previous recipients of this prestigious award are positive role models for business.  They show vision,  have the courage to take risks and are a catalyst for change.  They demonstrate their leadership skills not only within their businesses but also in the community at large.
