Ethnic Business Awards

Ethnic Business Awards is a business award held in Australia to recognize the achievement of migrant business owners. Held annually since 1988, they are Australia’s longest running business award on television.

Founded in 1988 by Joseph Assaf AM, a Lebanese born Australian who specializes in multicultural marketing and businesses, the awards' goal was to "recognise and reward the contributions of migrants to the Australian economy". The Awards have drawn significant attention.[1][2]

In 2010, a new category, Indigenous in Business was created, offering recognition for "the descendants of those first Australians – the traditional owners of the land".[3]
