Many events companies do incredible things with a small team and small budget. New in 2018, Best Small Event recognises events delivering an outstanding experience on a budget of $150K or less - it doesn't matter if you had 10 or 10,000 people, it just needs to be delivered within the $150K budget to be in the running.
