About the Awards
Sparking Breakthroughs, Celebrating Excellence
The inaugural TOA Global Golden Abacus Awards is a celebration of accounting brilliance, leadership, innovation, and positive impact. In our 11+ years of serving the accounting industry, we’ve helped, collaborated, and partnered with countless accounting teams whose work and meaningful contributions deserve to be celebrated but often go unnoticed.
This year, we’re putting the spotlight on TOA Global clients that lead with purpose, innovate with intent, and raise the bar for what’s possible in the profession. Whether it’s through exceptional client service, operational efficiency, team and employee development, or strategic growth, the Golden Abacus Awards honors the trailblazers driving real change in our industry.
If your firm is making a difference or know one that is, nominate now and together let’s recognise those that are shaping the #FutureofAccounting!
Awards Overview & Submission Criteria
Luca Pacioli Firm of the Year
Named after the Father of Accounting, the Luca Pacioli Firm of the Year Award is given to the firm that has demonstrated outstanding overall performance in key areas, such as client service, innovative practices, team development, and community impact.
Outstanding Small Firm of the Year
This award celebrates the small firm that punches above its weight. Open to firms with fewer than 20 onshore employees or annual revenue of $3 million or less, this category recognises those that deliver exceptional service, drive growth, and foster a high-performing team culture despite limited resources.
Accounting Innovator
The Accounting Innovator Award honors the firm that’s redefining what’s possible in accounting. From leveraging technology for a more streamlined workflow to pioneering new service models and innovative practices, this award honors bold ideas that are pushing the industry forward.
The People First Award
Great firms are built by great people—and those who invest in them. The People First Award honors firms that prioritise the growth, well-being, and professional development of their teams. It’s about culture, leadership, and creating an environment where people thrive.
Purpose in Practice
The Beyond Accounting Award recognises the firm that’s making an impact beyond numbers. Whether through social responsibility, environmental initiatives, charitable work, or local community engagement, this award celebrates firms that use their platform for good—and create meaningful change outside the bottom line.
