The clock is ticking!
Time is almost up for businesses across Lancashire to enter the Be Inspired Business Awards (BIBAs) 2025 – the countyā€™s most prestigious business awards.
With the deadline fast approaching, this is the final opportunity for companies to showcase their achievements and be in the running for one of Lancashireā€™s most sought-after accolades.
The BIBAs celebrate the very best in business, recognising companies of all sizes and sectors that demonstrate innovation, resilience, and excellence. From manufacturing powerhouses to cutting-edge start-ups, hospitality champions to professional service providers, thereā€™s a category for every ambitious business looking to gain recognition, credibility, and a competitive edge.
Headline sponsors Lancashire County Council ā€“ and sponsors of the Business of the Year – are urging businesses not to miss out on the chance to be part of this yearā€™s awards.
County Councillor Aidy Riggott, Cabinet Member for Economic Development and Growth of Lancashire County Council, said: “The BIBAs shine a spotlight on the incredible businesses that power Lancashireā€™s economy, creating jobs, driving innovation, and ensuring the county remains a thriving place to live and work,”
“Winning a BIBA is a mark of excellence and resilience, and we strongly encourage businesses to seize this opportunity before itā€™s too late.”
Finalists will go through Lancashireā€™s most rigorous business awards process, including face-to-face interviews and the famous BIBAs on Tour, where judges visit businesses in person.
The awards culminate in the spectacular BIBAs ceremony, a night of celebration that brings together the very best in business, under the world-famous Blackpool Illuminations at the iconic Tower Ballroom on Friday, 19th September.
