The Judging Process

We have put together an independent panel of judges who consist of the Chamber Patrons and the Chamber Board members who will be meeting during August to shortlist the top five finalists in each category.

The five finalists from each category will be notified of their success on Friday 5th September via email. In this email, finalists will be given a date and time (during w/c 15th & 22nd September) where they will meet with and be interviewed by our partner judges in-person either at the finalists business premises or the Chamber offices.

After all interviews have been conducted, the partner judges will pick a winner and highly commended (optional), and these will be announced on the evening of Thursday 20th November.

Please note: The Black Country Chamber of Commerce team do not play a part in judging awards entries. The decision is made by our independent and partner judges and their decision is final.
