Western Sydney Awards for Business Excellence
The Western Sydney Awards for Business Excellence (WSABE) was proudly founded by the Parramatta Chamber of Commerce in 1990 and remains one of the most prestigious awards programs in the Greater Sydney region.
The WSABE platform recognises outstanding business leaders and organisations who are actively contributing to the Western Sydney region’s rapidly developing economy.
Since its inception, WSABE has been a launching pad for many of Western Sydney’s high profile businesses and professionals. WSABE provides a unique opportunity to showcase the finest businesses and business leaders that the Greater Western Sydney area has to offer.
WSABE is unique as they are not voted on, rather submissions are rigorously accessed by a qualified panel of industry experts.
WSABE aligns businesses and sponsors with a prestigious platform that is recognised across the region with a reach spanning across over 150 postcodes.
Entries Now Open for WSABE 2026
The Western Sydney Awards for Business Excellence returns for 2026, celebrating the people and businesses helping our region thrive.
WSABE recognises the hard work behind the scenes, the risks taken, the growth achieved and the communities supported. Each year, organisations of every size step forward to share their journey and be recognised for the difference they make.
If you are proud of what your team has built, now is the time to put your name forward, connect with the wider business community and be celebrated on a regional and state stage.

“Receiving the 2016 WSABE Business of the Year Award (along a few others), has been a truly satisfying experience that has catapulted Sparks+Partners into the spotlight based on genuine hard work, reward and recognition. Competing with so many other talented Western Sydney businesses was an honour and an opportunity to discover new connections and uncover the best in the west. We encourage anyone considering entering to take the plunge, the effort and experience is absolutely worthwhile.”
– Leon Dimino, Sparks+Partners Consulting Engineers Managing Director
“ The WSABE award is not one to be on a mantle, the flow on effect and power of the award certainly has surpassed my expectations, with continued personal and business growth. From an avid awards goer, the WSABE awards, I would have to say are the pinnacle of any awards program for business success”
– Gina Field, Nepean Regional Security Managing Director
“The WSABE awards are a great way to showcase the amazing contributions of extraordinary people right across Greater Western Sydney. We are very proud as a non-profit organisation to be awarded finalist in the Excellence of Social Enterprise category for 2017. We look forward to continuing to promote the great work that is being done in the community sector and all who work in it. I commend WSABE for providing a platform where Greater Western Sydney businesses and community groups can come together and be celebrated.”

“We at the Greater Western Sydney GIANTS were delighted to receive the marketing award at the 2016 WSABE Gala Dinner. Being part of the community of organisations associated with the Chamber along with those who attended on the night gives us a genuine connection with business within Western Sydney. The process in the lead up to the awards night including the nomination process was seamless and we were honoured that our marketing campaign won this award and can therefore be seen to resonate with the community in which we are part of.”
– Rebecca Shaw, GWS Giants, General Manager Marketing and Consumer
To win the Excellence in Arts and Culture Award for the second year in a row is deeply validating especially as they coincide with the two hard years of COVID. Within and without the organisation it confirms we are making the difference we hope to achieve, galvanising us into a common purpose. For every member of the team, the over 100 artists we employ, the over 70 partners we work with, the recognition of the excellence we achieve through our programs and for the people we serve energises us to continue to provide the platform for our stories to be told and celebrated.
-Michael Campbell, WestWords Executive Director.
