Innovating? Enter the 2degrees Business Awards

Thinking differently? The Innovation category in the 2degrees Business Awards could be for you. This is your chance to showcase how your business is solving real-world problems, delivering value, and challenging conventional thinking.
Whether you've launched a market-first product, reimagined a customer experience, or introduced a smarter way to scale, this category celebrates innovation that delivers tangible results. It’s not just about bold ideas it’s about how those ideas are brought to life and the impact they make.
Successful entrants benefit from valuable exposure through marketing and media, along with personalised feedback from experienced judges who understand what it takes to grow and lead in a competitive landscape.
You might think you're not ready, or not big enough - but if you’ve built momentum, you’re already on the path. The entry process offers a powerful opportunity to reflect, benchmark your progress, and refine your story for future growth.
This is your moment to stand alongside Auckland’s forward-thinking companies and position your brand as a leader in innovation.
There’s real value in both being named a finalist and taking home a win.
Entries are free and close on 13 July.
Innovation is just one of several award categories.
Explore them all and show Auckland what the future of business looks like.
