The Nizhny Novgorod Region Chamber of Commerce and Industry, with informational support from the regional government, has announced the start of applications for the regional stage of the Golden Mercury National Entrepreneurship Award (18+).

The goal of the regional stage is to engage the business community of the Nizhny Novgorod Region as widely as possible, identify the best companies, and worthily showcase the region's industrial, innovative, and social potential at the federal level.

Participation in the award is not just a prestigious honor but also a powerful tool for strengthening business reputation, entering new markets, and demonstrating investment appeal. Nizhny Novgorod enterprises have repeatedly proven their competitiveness, becoming laureates and winners at the federal level. Among them are Nikitino LLC (agribusiness), Sweet Technologies LLC (family business), Nizhpharm JSC (exports), and others. New victories will help shape the image of the Nizhny Novgorod Region as a leading region with outstanding business achievements.

Businesses of all sizes—small, medium, and large—are invited to participate, including export-oriented and family-run enterprises. The competition is held free of charge, with no organizational fees or expert evaluation costs.

Key Categories:

  • "Best Small and Medium-Sized Enterprise" (by sector: industry, construction, agribusiness, services, innovation, and others);
  • "Best Export-Oriented Enterprise";
  • "Best Family Business in Russia";
  • Special Category:"For Contributions to the Preservation and Development of Russia's Folk Arts and Crafts"—particularly significant for Nizhny Novgorod, the official capital of folk arts and crafts.
