2027 BCBusiness 30 Under 30 Nomination Form

Are you an outstanding young business leader making a difference in B.C.? Tell us more by applying for our 14th annual 30 Under 30 competition. If you make the grade, you’ll be in excellent company. Every year, we honour a new 30 Under 30 class whose ingenuity, resilience and drive to succeed show why the future of our province is so bright. Note: The deadline for applications is 11:55 p.m. on October 19, 2026.
A quick note on AI: One of the best ways to make your 30 Under 30 application stand out is to write it yourself. Last year, we noticed that many submissions appeared to be AI-generated, with the result being that a lot of them sounded remarkably similar, making it harder for applicants to distinguish themselves. We want to hear your voice. Tell us candidly about the experiences, challenges (and we know there are challenges!), wins and lessons that have shaped your journey. A genuine story will always be more memorable than a perfectly polished one!
