The Queen's Award for Enterprise Promotion (QAEP) celebrates and
recognises the activities of individuals who have played an
outstanding and significant role in promoting enterprise skills and
attitudes in others in the UK.
There will be up to ten Awards each year and a single Lifetime
Achievement Award if there is an appropriate candidate.
The winners/recipients in each category of the Queen's Awards are
announced on 21 April every year - to coincide with HM The Queen's
birthday. If you have been successful, you will be contacted before
the announcement is made. When you are contacted, you will also be
informed how you can best use The Queen's Awards Emblem to increase
