The Milton Keynes Business Achievement Awards (MKBAA) return in March, once again shining a light on the organisations and individuals who help drive the city forward. With entries for 2026 now closed, attention now turns to the partners who help bring this major event to life: the sponsors who support what has become one of the most anticipated nights in the Milton Keynes calendar.
Each year, MKBAA brings together business leaders, innovators, educators and charities for an evening that reflects this year’s theme – The Power of Partnerships. The awards celebrate not only achievement, but also the collaboration that underpins the city’s continued success. Sponsors play an important part in that picture, supporting both the event itself and the wider programme of finalist celebrations, networking gatherings and community-focused activity throughout the year.
MKBAA’s headline sponsors -Milton Keynes City Council, The Open University and Brioche Pasquier – have spoken about why being involved matters to them. The City Council describes the awards as a chance to recognise the people who help the city thrive, noting how much talent sits behind Milton Keynes’ success. The Open University calls MKBAA a brilliant platform for showcasing innovation and creativity across the region while Brioche Pasquier says the awards’ themes consistently reflect the company’s own values, adding that being involved feels like a natural fit for an event that celebrates a dynamic and forward-looking business community.
A variety of sponsorship opportunities for MKBAA 2026 remain available, including several award categories and several event-led options such as Trophy Sponsorship, Reception Sponsorship and Winners’ Drinks. These provide organisations of all sizes with the chance to align with a key moment in the city’s business calendar, while also strengthening ties within the Milton Keynes community.
For organisations looking to raise their profile, deepen local connections or simply support the ongoing success of Milton Keynes’ business community, MKBAA sponsorship offers a meaningful way to do so.
