Nominate Today for the 2027 Difference Makers Awards


SPRINGFIELD — BusinessWest, the business journal of Western Massachusetts, is now accepting nominations for its 19th annual Difference Makers awards.
 
BusinessWest launched the Difference Makers program in 2009 to recognize and celebrate the work of individuals, groups, businesses, and institutions that are positively impacting the communities of Western Massachusetts. As previous honorees have shown, there are many ways to make a difference within our community, such as working on initiatives aimed at improving quality of life; succeeding in business, public service, or education; inspiring others to get involved; and making an imaginative effort to help solve societal issues.
 
Nominations for the Difference Makers class of 2027 are due by Monday, Dec. 21, 2026. They can be submitted at https://businesswest.com/difference-makers-nomination-form/
