The Lloyds Bank National Business Awards were an annual British awards ceremony recognising achievement among businesses headquartered in the United Kingdom, held from 2002 to 2020. They comprised a programme of networking and judging events culminating in a black-tie dinner at the Grosvenor House Hotel in Mayfair, London. The awards once called "the Oscars of great British business" by former prime minister David Cameron.[1] but were closed by owners Informa Markets after a change in direction by the information company post Covid pandemic.
In 2019 it featured over 140 finalists across fifteen categories, covering business innovation, growth, entrepreneurship, employment, data, artificial intelligence and corporate social responsibility.[2] Among the winners were entrepreneurs James Timpson and Sara Davies.[3][4]
