The Vancouver Business Journal’s annual Business Growth Awards program recognizes start-ups and growing businesses in Southwest Washington. Join us in celebrating and encouraging business growth in our region. The Awards are open to businesses located in Clark, Cowlitz and Skamania counties.
Since its inception in 2005, hundreds of businesses — including local branches of national corporations, locally headquartered international companies, publicly traded regional companies, as well as single-location, privately held retailers — have been acknowledged.
Fastest growing businesses are recognized in three categories: Fastest Growing Company in business 1 to 5 years, 6 to 10 years and more than 10 years. Additionally, we recognize a start-up business and innovator of the year. All entries are confidentially reviewed by a panel of experts including members of the Washington State University – Vancouver College of Business Faculty and Staff.
