SHOWCASE AWARD
The Showcase Award identifies the SBI Program and its Director that is deserving of recognition for innovative development or management, or because their SBI efforts contributed to a true small business client success story. Any person can nominate a deserving program, and self nominations are also allowed. Nominations can only be for individuals who have not previously won the Showcase award. Nominations are solicited in the fall with voting occurring by December 1. The selection process is handled by the SBI President-Elect.
Previous winners who are members of SBI and current officers are eligible to vote for the nominees, and there can be more than one winner each year. There does not have to be a winner, if nominations are not worthy of the honor. Awards are announced at the next annual meeting.
