Judges select and look for businesses that demonstrate core elements of the Rotary Club's Four-Way Test:
- Is it the truth?
- Is it fair to all concerned?
- Will it build goodwill and better friendships?
- Will it be beneficial to all concerned?
- The test serves an ethical guide for Rotarians to use in their personal and professional relationships.
This year's awards event was renamed for the late who chaired the program before his death in 2024.

"We are honored to represent and present the first-time named Richard L. Knight Award for minority business owners," son Rashaud Knight told the crowd.
