The King’s Trust Australia is excited to announce that nominations are now open for the 2024 Beyond Service Awards. Now in their third year, the Beyond Service Awards celebrate the entrepreneurial achievements of Australian Defence Force veterans and their partners across diverse industries nationwide.
In 2024, we are thrilled to introduce a new award category: the Rising Star Award. This category recognises the entrepreneurial excellence of an Australian Defence Force veteran or spouse aged 35 years or under.
Chief Executive Officer, Michelle Endacott, stated:
“I’m delighted to welcome back the Beyond Service Awards for the third year in a row. The introduction of the Rising Star Award highlights the brilliance of young entrepreneurs in the ADF community, who demonstrate remarkable initiative, innovation, and resilience.”
The 2024 Beyond Service Awards also sees the return of the New Mission Award, the Defence Family Business Award, and the Community Impact Award.
“The depth and quality of entries we received last year speaks to the entrepreneurial spirit within the ADF community. We encourage all veterans and Defence Force partners who are eligible to apply,” said Jasmine Cooper-Sutton, Head of the Enterprise Programme.
The 2024 Beyond Service Awards are open for nominations now. You do not need to have participated in a King’s Trust Australia (formerly Prince’s Trust Australia) programme to enter. Read more and nominate here.
