The Queen’s Awards for Enterprise 2011 is now open for applications – this provides a great chance for members of UK trade associations to highlight excellence and best practice in their industry.
Outstanding UK businesses of all sizes and from any industry sector are now being urged to apply for The Queen’s Awards for Enterprise 2011 – widely regarded as the UK’s highest honour for business success, and the equivalent of a company knighthood.
Businesses who win a Queen’s Award receive extensive benefits. A survey of previous winners found that, in the first year alone, three quarters experienced extra press coverage; 82% saw an increase in employee engagement; and nearly two thirds of winners in the International Trade category either increased their recognition abroad or generated new business.
It costs nothing to enter The Queen’s Awards, and companies have until 31st October 2011 to enter. Winners will be announced on 21st April 2012.
