NNBW Best In Business contest returns starting today

The Northern Nevada Business Weekly’s 2023 Best In Business contest is set to return this month with the nomination period kicking off Wednesday, Aug. 16.

The contest will be available at nnbw.com/bestinbusiness2023 — here are some of the key details for this year:

• Like in previous years, the 2023 contest will be broken into two phases: a nomination period and a voting period, both of which will be handled by an independent third-party platform through the NNBW website.

• The nomination period runs from 12:01 a.m. Aug. 16 through 11:59 p.m. Sept. 3, during which readers can nominate any person or business in any of the categories. You can nominate daily, so be sure you are doing so.

• Once the nomination period wraps, NNBW staff will spend time weeding through the entries to ensure accuracy.

• Next, the voting period is scheduled for Sept. 13 through Oct. 1, during which time readers can vote once per day for their favorite nominee in each of the categories.

• To wrap it all up, the winners (including second and third place) will be announced in December, starting with the Dec. 6 Northern Nevada Business Weekly.
