They are the best businesses in the region and deserve recognition and acclaim, which is exactly what the Northern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce will do when it hosts the five-day virtual celebration that is its annual Business Impact Awards, presented by Huntington Bank, beginning Aug. 10.
Originating in 2016, the Business Impact Awards celebrate companies small and large, new and long-standing alike that have impacted Northern Kentucky through their innovation, creativity, strong business practices and leadership. This year’s event will be a week-long affair providing attendees extended time to learn about and celebrate each of this year’s finalists.

“There are so many businesses in our region doing innovative, creative things for both employees and customers,” said Lynn Abeln, Vice President, Membership-Sponsorship Sales. “We are excited to be able to host the Business Impact Awards virtually this year and shine a spotlight on this year’s finalists.”
“Meet the Finalists,” a virtual networking happy hour highlighting hopefuls in the 10 award categories (two of which will be announced each day via Facebook Live), kicks off the week on Aug. 10. The happy hour will enable attendees to interact with representatives from finalist companies during three, 10-minute breakout sessions. It will also include the presentation of the first two Business Impact Awards in the Small and Medium Business categories.
The event will kick off promptly at 10 a.m. for the Large Business Awards program and the announcement of the Community Champions Award in the For-Profit category. The Aug. 12 session will see the awards for Community Champions in the Nonprofit category and the Heritage Award – which recognizes a company that has shown consistent stability by operating for at least 25 years – distributed.
Next, the 2020 Start-Up Award (given to a business in operation for more than 1 but less than 5 years) and the Innovation Award (which recognizes a business that has inspired and brought new thinking into the marketplace) will be presented Aug. 13.
Concluding the festivities will be the announcement of the winners of the Cool Place to Work and Business Growth Awards at 10 a.m. on Aug. 14. All Business Impact Awards broadcasts are free to attend although registration is required.
