work in education, training or youth work and help provide others with enterprise skills
are involved in social enterprise and either achieve business outcomes or help others develop business skills

The award was initiated in 2004,[3] with the first awards being made in 2005.[4] The award is for achievement in enterprise promotion, between five and ten awards have been made annually since 2005, in addition to one lifetime achievement award each year and sometimes an honorary award (three such awards have been made as of 2015).
