The awards are open to any sized business, from two-person partnerships to large multinationals.

There is no limit to the number of awards available each year, giving any truly outstanding business a realistic chance of royal recognition and national publicity.

This year for the first time, nominations are also being invited from the electronics sector for individuals felt to be worthy of a new royal award for contributions to encouraging a UK enterprise culture.

The Queen's Award for Enterprise Promotion is for outstanding individuals who promote enterprise by teaching other people enterprise skills or who, as mentors or role models, inspire others to become successful entrepreneurs.

Nominations are sought from colleagues, associates and beneficiaries of their work.

The deadline for all applications and nominations is 31st October 2004.
