A handy list of UK business competitions and awards.
Business competitions like the monthly £1,000 Shell LiveWIRE Grand Ideas Awards and annual £10,000 Shell LiveWIRE Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award offer more than just funding, providing winners and finalists with great PR opportunities and prestige which can open doors and help leverage more funding from other sources. (See "How Shell LiveWIRE can kickstart your business by Milkistar & Adspad").
There are also lots of other competitions and awards for UK-based businesses throughout the year, some of which are listed in the 'Related Information' box below.
