Yes, technically the entry deadline closed for B&T‘s 30 Under 30 awards last Friday. However, because we know a whole lot of you didn’t get your ducks in a row in time, we’ve extended it for one week only!

The 30 Under 30 Awards recognise the most determined, talented and innovative young guns in the industry, and you could be one of them… but only if you enter the B&T 30 Under 30 Awards!

Late entries are closing this Friday (2 March) at 5pm, so get cracking!

You can download the entry criteria here (so you don’t mess it up in your last-last-minute flurry).

FYI, if you’re not under 30 on the night of the awards (Thursday 12 April), you cannot enter. We don’t care what anti-ageing cream you’re using. Late entries are made even harder by not matching all the criteria, people.

If you do meet all the criteria, you can be at any point in your career. You could be just starting out or already in a leadership position, but these awards champion those people that go above and beyond the call of duty in the daily working lives, and demonstrate excellence and a vital contribution to their current employer and their determination and desire to progress their careers.

If that’s you, great! Submit late entries right here before time runs out.

But be sure to save your entry in a Word doc first, in case so many of you serial procrastinators jump onto the awards portal at the last minute and it crashes. And we’re expecting a ton of last-minute entries, so the earlier in the week you enter (today), the easier it will be.

At the event, three outstanding individuals will be recognised for their achievements in each of the 10 categories, and a Grand Prix Award will be given out to the most influential individual overall. All entrants will also be a part of the People’s Choice poll, to be opened after entries are closed.

So again, late entries close on Friday 2 March at 5pm. 

This year, the 30 Under 30 Awards will be held on Thursday 12 April at the SMC Conference & Function Centre in Sydney.

You can still nab tickets here, but for everything else you need to know on the event, head to the 30 Under 30 website.
