The Business Hall of Fame started in 2005 with the posthumous induction of founding member of the T&T Chamber Joseph Leon Agostini. The very first Business Hall of Fame was a simple ceremony that took place in the Board room of T&T Chamber’s offices. The award ceremony soon outgrew its modest beginnings and evolved into an official award ceremony which now inducts a maximum of two business leaders at its annual awards event. Each year outstanding individuals are inducted into the T&T Chamber’s Business Hall of Fame; one of these persons may be inducted posthumously.

A nominee must:

• Be a citizen of Trinidad and Tobago
