About Us

At Oceanic Awards, we shine a spotlight on exceptional people, businesses, and communities that deliver outstanding achievements across industries and borders.

Every year, thousands of businesses attend our awards ceremonies, and we receive hundreds of thousands of nominations across more than 150+ award programmes. This incredible level of engagement demonstrates the value and prestige of being recognised at Oceanic Awards.

Our Campaigns

We proudly run three distinct types of award campaigns:

1. Trade & Professional Business Awards – Recognising the very best in industry, commerce, and professional excellence.
2. Asian-Focused Awards – Celebrating the achievements and contributions of Asian communities across the UK, Ireland, and beyond.
3. Online Digital Awards – A flexible, digital-first platform to celebrate success without geographical limitations, making recognition more accessible than ever.

Building on the success of the Awards, our goal is to deliver 150+ awards in the next 12 months, spanning the UK, Ireland, Canada, and the USA.

Our new online division further breaks down barriers, enabling finalists to be recognised globally while keeping costs low through virtual ceremonies.

Our Awards

• We host physical events in nearly 20 cities, as well as online ceremonies, all delivered to the highest possible standard.
• Every finalist is guaranteed to receive the recognition and applause they deserve.
• We never charge an entry or nomination fee, and finalists are never judged by competitors, or any judge — making our process fair, inclusive, and transparent.
• Every finalist gets a FREE marketing kit, FREE PR kit and FREE social media kit. They also get discounted or free tickets depending on the awards ceremony.

How It Works

We want the awards journey to be as clear and straightforward as possible. Here’s how it all comes together:

1. Promotion

• Awards promotion begins around six months before the ceremony.
• Using insights and data from previous events, we create campaigns that reach large and diverse audiences.

2. Categories

• Categories are created to reflect the diversity of talent within each industry.
• Based on nominations and engagement, we may add new categories or retire categories with fewer votes.
• This ensures the awards remain inclusive, fair, and representative of the communities we serve.

3. Nominations

• The public are invited to submit nominations through our social media platforms and online forms.
• Each year, we receive hundreds of thousands of nominations — a powerful sign of appreciation for the businesses and individuals making a difference.
• Many nominees run their own campaigns to encourage votes, which demonstrates strong community and client support.
• Alongside public input, our team also uses industry research and expertise to identify outstanding talent and ensure no one deserving goes unrecognised.

4. Finalists

• Finalists are chosen through a combination of public nominations, votes received, and our independent expertise.
• With thousands of businesses involved annually, becoming a finalist is a major achievement and proof of real impact, dedication, and excellence.

5. Winners

• Winners are determined by:
  • Public votes
  • Supporting evidence submitted by nominees
  • Due diligence checks carried out by our team to ensure fairness and transparency
• This process ensures winners are recognised not only for popularity but also for quality, professionalism, and merit.

6. Attendance

• Every year, thousands of finalists and guests attend our awards ceremonies, making them some of the largest celebrations of talent and achievement across the  UK, Ireland, Canada, and the USA.
• While attendance is encouraged, it is not essential — many winners unable to attend in person still receive their recognition and award.

⭐ In short, our mission is to make the awards process transparent, inclusive, and celebratory — from the very first nomination to the moment the winners are announced.
