EU Business News is thrilled to announce the return of the Benelux Enterprise Awards for its seventh year! Celebrating the spirit of business excellence across Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg, this acclaimed programme is dedicated to elevating and applauding the standout achievements within the vibrant Benelux business community.
Embracing companies of all shapes and sizes within the Benelux region, the Benelux Enterprise Awards 2024 extends its arms wide open to both the trailblazing startups and the stalwarts of industry. This initiative is crafted to recognise the rich tapestry of businesses that power the region’s economy, irrespective of their sector or stature.
In 2024, the Benelux region exhibits distinct economic narratives with a unified tilt towards innovation and sustainability. Belgium’s economy is on an upward trajectory, expected to grow by 1.4%, buoyed by robust private consumption and a burgeoning social commerce sector poised to hit a £2 billion valuation by 2029. The Netherlands anticipates a subtle rebound with 0.4% GDP growth, driven by enhanced public and household spending, despite facing labour shortages and investment hesitations. Luxembourg’s growth remains modest, projected at 1.3%, as it grapples with external demand dips and tight financial conditions. Key regional trends underscore a commitment to digital transformation, AI integration, and eco-friendly practices, aiming to navigate through labour market challenges and economic disparities. The Benelux in 2024 is a landscape of cautious optimism, spotlighting innovation amid diverse economic forecasts.
At the heart of EU Business News lies a passion for showcasing the monumental strides and successes of the European business sector. Through the Benelux Enterprise Awards 2024, EU Business News aims to cast a spotlight on those entities that have not only excelled within their respective domains but have also contributed significantly to the broader economic landscape, inspiring a legacy of innovation and excellence across the Benelux region.
The awards process for the Benelux Enterprise Awards 2024 is simple. EU Business News welcomes external nominations from anyone who wishes to put forward a deserving business or individual for consideration. Alternatively, EU Business News also conducts its own independent research to identify potential candidates for recognition. The research team uses various sources of publicly available information to evaluate the performance and reputation of each nominee. The research team then presents its findings to our judging panel, who make the final decision on who will be successful in this year’s awards.
The benefits of taking part in the Benelux Enterprise Awards 2024 are numerous. If you are successful in this year’s programme, you will be presented to our circulation of 58,000 and promoted on our official website for a minimum of 12 months. In addition, our awardees are welcome to choose from our range of competitively priced promotional opportunities to increase exposure of the good news!
Participation in the Benelux Enterprise Awards 2024 offers a golden opportunity for businesses to amplify their success stories, bolster their market position, and enhance their brand perception across and beyond the Benelux region. Being acknowledged by such a distinguished programme can significantly elevate a company’s profile, distinguishing it as a leader in its field.
Additionally, this accolade serves as a powerful morale booster, attracting stellar talent and reinforcing customer and partner confidence.
In essence, the Benelux Enterprise Awards 2024 is more than just an awards scheme; it’s a celebration of the resilience, ingenuity, and dynamism that characterises the Benelux business landscape.

The EU Business News team work hard in identifying great businesses, driving many of the nominations themselves. We also encourage external nominations from the subscribers of the magazine, online visitors, social media followers, clients and wider circulation. Nominating parties are invited to put forward either their own business or third-party companies whom they hold in high regard.
All nominees are formally requested to accept their nomination. Should any firm or individual decline at this point, they are simply taken out of the running. Those who formally accept are given the opportunity to submit additional supporting information to cement their nomination. Although there is no obligation to complete and supply material, we have found that many nominees value this stage, in the process, as much as our research team do.
Our dedicated research team will assess all information presented to them. The team gather information independently from a variety of publicly accessible sources, which are assessed alongside any material supplied by a nominating party or the nominee themselves. The research team casts their final judgment, based on various criteria such as: business performance, longevity, business growth (either sustained or rapid), any significant innovations or feedback from stakeholders.
Once winners are selected, they are personally notified before any public announcement is made, allowing time for any communications throughout the wider business and the coordination of marketing strategies. Unfortunately, not everyone can be a winner; however, all who take part are encouraged to come back next year. Once the press embargo is lifted, details of our award winners will be made public via the website, award winners’ magazine and subscriber newsletter.
We are prepared to offer a range of promotional packages and items to winners of a EU Business News award, which vary from inclusion in the free-of-charge winners’ directory, to trophies, content in our magazine and on our website.
We encourage all winners to publicly announce their win independently in order to gain maximum exposure for their win. Announcements via company websites, social media, via publicly released press releases, and through local and national press are all great ways of maximising the exposure which can be gained from such a great achievement. If you have need of further advice, on how to publicise your win, please feel free to get in touch. We are happy to assist our clients with their needs.
The Nomination Team can assist with answering any queries that you have regarding a nomination, or the process involved in taking part in one of our award programmes.
Please get in touch with us via email or over the phone if you have any questions - we are happy to help!
