THE GREATER SPRINGFIELD CHAMBER OF COMMERCE is looking for enterprising owners whose innovative approach to business deserves special recognition. We are looking for individuals who, despite facing tremendous adversity, would do it all over again and whose fervor for running a business is rivaled only by their willingness to serve the community. Each year, the Small Business Awards Committee canvasses the community in search of the most outstanding entrepeneurs. We invite you to submit a candidate or two who you feel is worthy of recognition for one of the five awards for the 2016 Small Business Awards. Each nominee must be a Chamber member in good standing.

We will celebrate the qualified nominees’ accomplishments and successes at the awards luncheon on Tuesday, June 21, at the Crowne Plaza Hotel.
