The awards, which are supported by PwC, are now open for entries with a deadline of Friday, 16 January.
Entries are now open for 13 categories spanning businesses of all sizes and sectors, including fast-growth businesses, international trade, investment, and employers. There will also be two individual awards, for chief executive of the year and ambassador.

Entries are free, and the awards will have a rigorous judging process. Site visits will take place in February and March, with shortlisted companies invited to pitch to judges in May before the winners are revealed at a black-tie awards evening next June.
The awards are also being supported by Daily Business Group and TheBusinessGrid.
