Monash Business Association
The Monash Business Association (MBA) is a local business network and advocacy body dedicated to supporting, connecting and celebrating businesses across the City of Monash.
Their focus is simple: to help strengthen the local business community through meaningful connection, leadership, recognition and growth.
The Association builds on a proud history that began with the Monash Business Awards in 1994. What started as an awards program has grown into a broader platform that supports businesses throughout the year with opportunities to connect, learn, collaborate and be recognised.
Today, the Monash Business Association brings together business owners, professionals, leaders and community stakeholders who share a commitment to seeing Monash businesses thrive.
Through a year-round calendar of events, networking opportunities, leadership forums and business-focused sessions, the Association helps local businesses build relationships, share ideas, discuss current challenges and discover new opportunities within the Monash business community.
Monash Business Awards
The Monash Business Awards are a flagship initiative of the Monash Business Association and remain one of the region’s most recognised business awards programs.
Each year, the Awards celebrate outstanding local businesses that demonstrate excellence, innovation, resilience, leadership and contribution across a wide range of industries.
Businesses are nominated and assessed through a structured process, with finalists and winners recognised at the Monash Business Awards Gala – a special evening that brings together the local business community to celebrate achievement, success and the people behind it.
Get involved
The Monash Business Association welcomes businesses of all sizes and industries within the City of Monash.
There are many ways to get involved, including becoming a member, attending events, sponsoring an initiative or participating in the Monash Business Awards program.
Nominate a Business
Do you know a business that deserves to be recognised?
