What Our Clients Say

Frequently Asked Questions

How long has EU Business News been in circulation?

EU Business News launched in 2016 and has since established itself as a trusted source of business news, insights, and recognition across Europe.

Our publication celebrates the organisations, professionals and innovators shaping the European business landscape, reaching an audience of business leaders and industry professionals across the continent.

EU Business News is part of AI Global Media, a UK-based digital publisher established in 2010.

Where did the nomination come from?

Nominations can come from various sources. Our research team identifies businesses and individuals they believe are worthy of consideration, while nominations can also be submitted by clients, colleagues, industry contacts, readers, and the nominees themselves.

The number of nominations or votes received does not determine who wins. Our awards are merit-based, with each shortlisted nominee assessed on their individual achievements.

What happens if a nomination is accepted?

Accepting simply confirms that you are happy to be considered for the award. There is no cost to accept your nomination or join the shortlist.

Once accepted, our research team will assess your organisation or achievements using publicly available information. You will also have the opportunity to provide supporting information if you wish, although this is not compulsory.

How are winners selected?

Our dedicated research team assesses each shortlisted nominee individually.

Research may include information supplied by the nominee alongside independently sourced, publicly available information. Depending on the award, areas considered can include business performance, growth, innovation, longevity, customer or stakeholder feedback, leadership, and wider industry impact.

Ultimately, winners are selected on merit rather than company size, popularity or the number of votes received.

Is there an awards ceremony?

No. EU Business News is a digital publisher, and our awards are announced online rather than through a physical awards ceremony.

This means there is no travel requirement, event attendance or associated ceremony cost for nominees or winners.

What happens if we win?

Successful nominees are contacted privately before the results are officially announced.

Once confirmed, winners are given the opportunity to choose how they would like to celebrate and promote their recognition. Winners are published through EU Business News, with complimentary recognition available alongside a range of optional promotional packages and services.

Are there any costs involved?

There are no mandatory costs to accept a nomination, take part in the judging process or receive an award from EU Business News.

Every winner has access to a complimentary option, ensuring businesses can benefit from their recognition regardless of budget.

We also offer optional promotional packages for winners who would like additional exposure, such as editorial features, digital assets, trophies, and other marketing opportunities. These are entirely optional and have no bearing on the judging process or award outcome.

Why does the email received come from a different domain to the EU Business News website?

As part of AI Global Media, we use dedicated email domains to manage the volume of award nominations and communications sent by our team.

This helps us separate campaign communications from other transactional emails and manage responses efficiently. If you are ever unsure whether an email is genuine, you are welcome to contact our team directly using the details provided on the EU Business News website.
