Prepare to witness the crowning of the region's most distinguished Regional Business of the Year and Regional Small Business of the Year. And as if that's not exciting enough, attendees will wield their influence by voting for the coveted 2026 People's Choice Awards, proudly sponsored by Brown Edwards. This year, we will also honor the local Veteran of the Year through the SBDC, along with our local Officers of the Month from the Roanoke County Police Department and Roanoke City Police Department, recognizing their outstanding service and dedication to our community.
That's just the scripted portion!
Once the scripted program wraps up, the night will transform into a bustling hub of networking, interactive games, and great bites from local food trucks.
