Through this competition, UK based small businesses can pitch their companies to retail buyers for a chance to receive support and a cash prize.

Small Business Goes Big is a competition for businesspeople to pitch their companies to British retailers for a chance to have their products stocked in high-street outlets.

Applicants are invited to create a pitch video for their business using Adobe Express, a free web and mobile app.

Winners will have the opportunity to pitch live on stage at the StartUp Show in London in January 2023. There is a prize pool of £10,000, which the judges will distribute on the day.

Any small business, micro-business, freelancer or sole trader can enter. They must be based in the UK and have fewer than 20 employees. Businesses must operate in one of these sectors: food and drink, homewares, fashion and jewellery, beauty and health, leisure and wellbeing.

The deadline to enter the competition is 8 January 2023 (24:00 GMT).
