The Golden Bull Award, an award organised by SGX-listed Audience Analytics, has announced its latest cohort of honourees for this year.
The award recognises and celebrates 20 outstanding Singaporean businesses that have demonstrated exceptional performance, innovation, and resilience in the face of challenges. Since its launch in Singapore in 2003, the award has been regarded as a benchmark for business success and leadership, and this year's recipients exemplify the diverse and dynamic landscape of Singapore small and medium enterprises (SMEs).
The honourees for this year were selected through a rigorous evaluation process, taking into account factors such as financial performance, strategic initiatives, market competitiveness, and sustainable business practices.
Baker Tilly Singapore served as the official auditor of the Golden Bull Award, ensuring transparency and integrity in the process, and The Edge Singapore is credited as the program’s official media partner.
The Golden Bull Award covers four markets across the region including mainland China, Malaysia, Singapore, and Taiwan, making this the largest recognition programme for SMEs in the region for business excellence.
The Golden Bull Award is divided into three categories: Emerging SMEs, Outstanding SMEs, and the coveted Super Golden Bull Award.

"While the high standards that we uphold for The Golden Bull have remained unchanged, the market and economic environment in Singapore has certainly become more complex and challenging. Therefore, to be successful in today’s environment, an entrepreneur needs to be agile and resilient, on top of having the business acumen and deep industry knowledge”, says organising chairman and managing director of Audience Analytics William Ng.
