Entries are now open for the Northamptonshire Business Awards 2026, with the county’s biggest celebration of business set to return on Friday, 11 September at Sywell Aerodrome. Wilson Browne Solicitors return as headline sponsor for this year’s event.
Widely recognised as a highlight in the county’s business calendar, the awards celebrate the organisations and individuals driving Northamptonshire forward, from ambitious start-ups and high-growth businesses to established employers, local champions and standout leaders.
Last year’s event brought together businesses from across the region for an evening that showcased excellence, innovation and resilience. Wilson Browne Solicitors also supported the prestigious Pinnacle Award, which was won by DACHSER.
This year’s awards will feature 14 categories, designed to recognise achievement across all areas of business, from leadership and innovation to growth, culture and community impact.
Sunny Singh, Commercial Director at Northamptonshire Chamber of Commerce, said: “The Northamptonshire Business Awards are a true celebration of the ambition, resilience and innovation that define our local business community. Every year, we see an incredible calibre of entries from organisations and individuals who are not only achieving success but also making a meaningful impact across the county.
“With 14 diverse categories, there is an opportunity for businesses of all sizes and sectors to showcase what they do best. These awards are about recognising the people behind the progress — the leaders, the teams and the rising stars driving Northamptonshire forward.
“We are proud to bring the awards back for 2026, and with the continued support of our sponsors, including headline sponsor Wilson Browne Solicitors, this year’s event promises to be our biggest and most exciting yet. I would encourage every business with a story to tell to put themselves forward and be part of what will be a fantastic celebration at Sywell Aerodrome this September.”
The awards provide an opportunity for businesses to raise their profile, gain recognition for their achievements and celebrate success with their teams, clients and peers. They also offer a platform to build credibility, generate marketing opportunities and stand out in an increasingly competitive landscape.
Sponsorship opportunities for the 2026 awards are available, with further details on tickets to be announced in due course.
Entries close on Friday, 19 June 2026.
