RECOGNITION

The Awards receive significant media profile throughout the Awards programme, across a number of different channels during our six month campaign designed by our creative partner Harvey Cameron. Through the support of our Print Partner, The Press, each finalist is profiled through print and online channels gaining recognition across the country. The Awards programme is also supported by our Radio Partner, MediaWorks, expanding the exposure through radio. You will see our social channels - facebook, twitter and LinkedIn showing our high engagement. The Awards programme culminates in the largest business awards ceremony in New Zealand with numerous high profile guests in attendance.

SUPPORTING SMALL, MEDIUM &

LARGE BUSINESSES

No matter what size your business is, we have a category for you. The beauty of the Westpac Champion Business Awards programme is most of our categories are split into two groups: Small Enterprise, and Medium/Large Enterprise. This ensures all businesses have the opportunity to enter.
