Small Business Week 2025

Small Business Week 2025 is May 5-8! Each year, we honor our small business community by recognizing five exceptional small business members who represent the spirit of the business community through their innovation, community involvement, and financial success. Finalists for Small Business of the Year are nominated by our membership and selected by a panel of expert judges.

We’ll celebrate our four finalist businesses throughout Small Business Week with seminars that allow them to show off the best their business has to offer. At the end of the week, we’ll name our 2025 Small Business of the Year at an Awards Celebration.

Thank you to our Sponsors!
