CalChamber has announced the Small Business Awards, set to honor four exceptional businesses with $5,000 grants. The awards will be presented at the California Business Outlook Dinner on June 4, 2025, in Sacramento. This initiative is supported by Visit California, the California New Car Dealers Association (CNCDA), the California Retailers Association, the California Restaurant Association, Western Growers, and the Sacramento Host Committee.
The program aims to recognize businesses that demonstrate innovation, leadership, and impact. Businesses can either self-nominate or be nominated by a local chamber or community member. Four grants are available as part of this initiative, including two specifically for fire-impacted businesses.
Applications for these awards close on April 11, 2025. More information regarding eligibility and selection criteria can be found on CalChamber's Small Business Awards page.
