Other helpful pointers:

  • Past applicants have found the application process and self-reflection it requires to be rewarding and inspiring, and have recommended having your whole team involved in the process.
  • Our Judges are looking for concise answers that are relevant, accurate, and honest. They are wanting to get an understanding of the business principles, philosophies, and practices. They also want a sense of how the business became successful, and your plans and vision for the future.
  • Make sure you allocate a reasonable amount of time to focus on your application.
