The Northern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce (NKY Chamber) this week announced the finalists for its annual Business Impact Awards, presented by Huntington Bank.

The awards celebration that honors the region’s top businesses will take place virtually on Wednesday, May 19 and Thursday, May 20 from noon to 1 p.m.

The Business Impact Awards recognize businesses — small and large, new and long-standing — that are positively impacting the Northern Kentucky community through innovation, creativity, strong business practices, and leadership. A panel of judges selected finalists from each of the ten Business Impact Award categories. More than 160 applications were received. Finalists will be recognized, and winners will be announced during the event.

“Hundreds of businesses throughout the Northern Kentucky region stood out this year. All of them had a positive impact on our community,” said Brent Cooper, president and CEO, NKY Chamber. “The challenges over the past year were unprecedented, but our businesses persevered. They were agile, hard-working and caring. They found a way to not only function, but to also offer a helping hand to lift up employees, other businesses and their community. All of these finalists have been exceptional and deserve to be honored at our awards celebration. We are grateful for their impact.”
