The community is filled with inspiring business leaders and businesses that move our community forward through job creation, innovation and community involvement. It’s no surprise that one of the favorite things to do at the Chamber is honor the successes of its members.

Who do you think shines as a small business leader in Buncombe County? Your boss? Your friend? The owner of your favorite local business? Or does your family-owned business stands out?
 
The Chamber's annual leadership awards recognize outstanding businesses and leaders. The awards process starts with nominations from you. Due to holidays, we’re extending the award deadline until Tuesday, April 11th. Nominate a Small Business Leader of the Year or submit your application for Family Business of the Year or the Sky High Growth Awards.

Sponsored by HomeTrust Bank, Small Business Leader of the Year awards recognize two individuals who clearly reflect quality and dedication to the operation of business in the Asheville area and provide leadership accomplishments including innovation, initiative and civic responsiveness. 
 
The Family Business of the Year Award, sponsored by the UNC Asheville Family Business Forum, recognizes a family-owned business for their contributions to the community and success as a family-owned enterprise. Self-nominations encourage. 
 
We're also taking applications for Sky High Growth Awards recognizing business success.
