Nomination Form Tips

  • Read the questions carefully. Make sure you answer them all with the information required. 

  • Provide a narrative – not bullet points. We are not looking for perfect written English, but our judges will assess your passion, innovation, and drive.

  • Reference any skills gained in military life that have aided the business and been successfully transferred.

  • Each question has a maximum word count. Consider and stick to what information is relevant to each answer, as the system will not allow you to go over the word count.

  • Nomination forms cannot be saved online, please be aware that your work will not be saved if you quit the browser. 

  • Consider drafting your answers offline before completing the form, keeping word count in mind. That way, you can revisit your details before making your final submission.
