Monash Business Association

Our mission is to recognise excellence and create opportunities for businesses in the City of Monash. The Monash Business Awards have successfully recognised excellent businesses in the area since 1994. With a Committee of local business representatives behind the initiative there is a high level of understanding of what makes a business exceptional. The Monash Business Awards offer you and your b

usiness the opportunity to profile your achievements to the local community and far reaching audiences. Completing the application form will give you the opportunity to reflect on your achievements and the entry process can help with planning for a positive future.

2016 introduces new categories for businesses to apply for (link to categories page). This is to ensure that every business has an opportunity to be nominated and judged against like minded or similar businesses. Each year the Monash Business Awards host five lunches at which successful nominees are asked to present their business and highlight why they should be crowned Monash Business of the Year at the gala event in July. These events provide an excellent opportunity to network and meet other businesses. Monash has over 18,000 businesses with their own unique products and services.
