To submit yourself for an award this year, an application fee is required. This fee is non-refundable and contributes to the administration of the Solopreneur Awards, while also ensuring submissions are made with genuine intent. Application fees increase as the submission window progresses, so we encourage applicants to apply early. You may submit entries for multiple categories; however, each category requires its own application and corresponding fee.
