BIA to host NH’s largest business networking event

109th Annual Dinner and Awards Celebration, presented by Eversource, set for Oct. 26

CONCORD –– The Business and Industry Association will host its 109th Annual Dinner and Awards Celebration, presented by Eversource, Wednesday, Oct. 26 at the DoubleTree by Hilton in Manchester.

BIA, New Hampshire’s statewide chamber of commerce and leading business advocate, will present its coveted Lifetime Achievement and New Hampshire Advantage awards. Winners will be announced by early September.

The event kicks off with a networking reception from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. followed by the dinner and awards ceremony. The evening concludes at 8:30 p.m. The celebration, which draws more than 700 business, political and opinion leaders from around the state, is New Hampshire’s largest and most prestigious business networking event.

The Lifetime Achievement Award, sponsored by Whelen Engineering, recognizes business leaders who have demonstrated a commitment to leadership in their professions, communities and New Hampshire. Recipients help shape their communities and the state through their successful business endeavors, active participation in civic organizations, involvement in boards, and service to local and state government. Last year’s honorees were Claira Monier, former executive director of New Hampshire Housing Finance Authority; Dr. Joseph Pepe, retired chief executive officer of CMC Healthcare System; and Harold Turner Jr., founder of The H.L. Turner Group.

The New Hampshire Advantage Award, sponsored by Bank of America, honors businesses, organizations or projects that enhance New Hampshire’s special character and quality of life in meaningful ways. New Hampshire Business Committee for the Arts received the 2021 honor.
