Maryland Small Business Week Awards Program, Inc. will again host a Chamber Challenge, to determine the state’s Top 3 Most Small Business Friendly Chambers, as voted by their members in an online poll. Winners will be revealed at the 36th Annual Maryland Small Business Week Awards Luncheon at Martin’s West in Baltimore on Thursday, June 4th.
“Each year we recognize and honor the accomplishments of remarkable people who have achieved success as small business owners but who also advocate on behalf of other small business owners and devote a lot of time and effort giving back to their community,” said Bryan LePage, Vice President of the MD Small Business Week Awards Committee. “In many instances, the nominations are submitted by chambers of commerce. Time and again we’ve been made aware of remarkable men and women who are incredible success stories but also incredible people and we get these stories from their chambers. We thought it was about time to recognize the great work that chambers of commerce do to support and promote their members.”
The Chamber Challenge is open to all chambers in the state. The general public and chamber members are invited to vote for their favorite chamber, once per day throughout the month of March. Voting opens March 1st and closes March 31st. Votes will be tallied and winners will be honored at the Awards Luncheon on June 4th. The event celebrates the achievements of the small business community and will also recognize the local winners of the U.S. Small Business Administration’s (SBA) National Small Business Week Awards Program.
