Win the kind of publicity you just can't buy! 

Everyone's a winner with The David Awards! We've worked hard with our sponsors and supporters to tailor some exciting prize packages to give your great little business a chance to make a real splash, gain huge credibility and achieve the recognition you deserve. Capitalise on that with the ability to provide your exclusive special offer (if wished) to a large, hand-picked audience based on your target market.

Prizes from Voyager 2026

The David Awards winners will be featured across Voyager’s channels with a dedicated winner profile, either as a Q&A-style video or image carousel, helping share your story with thousands of businesses and consumers across our social media. The Supreme Award winner will also receive additional exposure through a feature in the Voyager email newsletter.

Each winner will also receive a FREE one-on-one AI Business Consultation with a Voyager AI specialist. We'll work with you to identify practical ways AI can help your business save time, improve customer experiences, and operate more efficiently, with recommendations tailored to your industry, goals, and day-to-day challenges, using tools already available to you.

To further support growing businesses, winners will receive preferential pricing on NEW Voyager Voice AI Agents (VAIA). Designed to help businesses that are stretched, VAIA assists with customer calls, appointment booking, lead qualification, and other routine enquiries, helping your team achieve more.

Prizes from NZBusiness 2026

Here's something most awards won't tell you: There's no cash prize for David Awards winners. What you get instead is better. 

Every winner receives an exclusive profile and video feature, published on NZBusiness and in a special David Awards digital issue. Real editorial coverage of your business, your story, and what makes you tick.

For a small business, that's gold. It's content you can point customers to, share with your team, and link back to for years. It boosts your online presence and searchability exactly where it counts, so when people search for what you do, they find you, backed by a credible, independent media brand.

Not many small businesses get offered this kind of exposure. Entering The David Awards puts you in the running for it.

Additional Prizes

  • The Supreme Winner has the opportunity to feature prominently in The David Awards' own 2027 online advertising campaign, gaining profile while also encouraging others to enter.
  • The Category Winners have the opportunity to feature in at least one Facebook post on The David Awards' Facebook page in 2026/2027

All promotional activity to be at the discretion and subject to editorial approval by the relevant sponsor and The David Awards.
