The nomination process has begun for the 30th annual Small Business of the Year awards hosted by Lone Star College System. All nominations are due
online to the LSC Small Business Development Center Advisory Council by June 30.
Individuals, organizations or businesses can submit nominations, including banks, accounting firms and chambers of commerce. Winners are selected based on leadership, entrepreneurial spirit, business growth and success and meaningful contribution to the community, officials said.
