Deadlines & Fees

The Noble Awards is dedicated to recognizing excellence while ensuring accessibility across the business community. We believe that access to global recognition should be within reach for all, regardless of its scale or size.

To uphold this commitment, our entry fees are kept at an affordable barrier. Each participant is charged a $30 annual administrative fee for the first entry of each competition year, to cover essential administrative expenses such as printing, mailing, and data organization.

This flat-rate fee structure ensures that all participants face the same modest expense, promoting fairness and inclusivity. For those submitting multiple entries, this structure proves even more economical compared to a sliding scale system. This model allows a broader range of businesses and individuals to gain international visibility and be celebrated for their exceptional achievements.
