5th Annual Watchlist Awards

Cape & Plymouth Business Marketing proudly presents the 5th Annual Watchlist Awards, taking place on March 26 at Margaritaville Resort Cape Cod.

The Watchlist Awards were created to celebrate local businesses that are established (in business at least one year) and truly on the rise—the ones building momentum, growing their presence, and making a meaningful impact in our community.

This is not about how big you are—it’s about where you’re headed.
If you’re showing up, putting in the work, and your business is gaining traction, this is your moment to be recognized.
