The nomination process was open to our readers and the wider family business community for eight weeks from 7 January.
Following the public nomination period, qualifying family business nominees were added to the personal recommendations from the judges
and a long list drawn up. This list was then analysed for each category and a shortlist of five was created.
The final vote for each category was based on a points-scoring model whereby: - 3 points were awarded for each judge’s first choice
- 2 points were awarded for each judge’s second choice
- 1 point was awarded for each judge’s third choice.
The winners are those family businesses or individuals with the highest score in their category.
