Nominate someone who deserves to Shine!
Take a moment to recognise greatness. Nominate someone outstanding today.
Every nomination starts with a spark, one person who takes the time to recognise another. Maybe it’s a founder who inspires you, a leader making a difference in their community or a business that goes the extra mile for its customers.
When you nominate them, you’re not just submitting a name. You’re giving them the gift of recognition, belief and visibility. At the Beam Awards 2026, we celebrate the heart and hustle of small business across Australia.
Your nomination could uplift someone’s entire year, remind them that what they’re building matters and open the door to national recognition.
It only takes a few minutes to fill out the form below but for the person you nominate, it could mean everything.

Hello Melbourne, Beam is Calling
Beam Awards is stepping onto its biggest stage yet.
After years of sold-out events across Queensland, we’re bringing the full Fuchsia Festival experience to Melbourne.
This milestone marks our evolution into a national celebration of small business success.
The Melbourne 2026 program features the Business Leaders Masterclass, Flamingo After Dark: The Cocktail Party and the highly anticipated Beam Awards Gala.
Across two vibrant days, guests will experience connection, education and celebration delivered in true Beam style. This is where community, creativity and small business brilliance take the spotlight on a national stage.
