From this, 42 unique organizations have been selected as finalists competing across the 11 application-based award categories.

The special award recipients are independently selected by the ABEX Judging Committee.

The theme of this year’s event is Luminary: For Those Who Light the Way. Chosen for its dual meaning, a source of light and a person or business whose vision, leadership, and influence inspire others, Luminary honours organizations whose excellence extends far beyond their own success, creating lasting impact across Saskatchewan’s business community.

“These finalists exemplify what it means to be a luminary in Saskatchewan business. They’re innovating, building, and creating impact in their communities. ABEX has always been rooted in recognizing provincial excellence, and these 42 organizations represent the breadth and depth of leadership we look forward to celebrating on September 26,” said Saskatchewan Chamber of Commerce CEO Prabha Ramaswamy.
