Enterprise Nation

At Enterprise Nation we love this time of year and we particularly enjoy making this announcement! Now in their third year, the Home Business Awards are the biggest and the best when it comes to recognising the amazing businesses being started and grown from home. And this year, we’ve added yet another category.

Categories

Deciding on a winner in these Awards is always a difficult task. So to give as many as possible the chance to be recognised and rewarded, we’re keeping the same categories as in 2008 which are:

• Home Business of the Year
• Home Business Couple of the Year
• Home Office of the Year
• Young Home Business Owner of the Year (under age of 35)

Along with a new category this year of:

• The 5 to 9 Home Business (open to anyone holding a day job and building the business at nights and weekends)

Your entry will automatically put you in the running to win the title 'Home Business of the Year' but you can also tick a box to apply for any or all of the categories.

It's free to enter and winners will receive some amazing prizes. They include:

• Prominent profile on the Enterprise Nation site and in a national newspaper
