Applications can be made online at www.queensawards.org.uk, the process costs nothing and the deadline is midnight on October 31st 2008.
Companies can apply for a Queen’s Award in up to three categories: International Trade, Innovation and Sustainable Development. Any number of firms can win an Award in each category, provided they can demonstrate outstanding or continuous business achievement in their field. Benefits of winning include extensive publicity, instant credibility, employee pride and use of the Queen’s Award Emblem in all marketing for five years.
The parallel Queen’s Award for Enterprise Promotion recognises outstanding people who are working to encourage aspiring entrepreneurs.
The official launch of the 2009 Queen’s Awards coincides with a special reception at Buckingham Palace tonight, 14th July, for this year’s 136 winning companies, who were announced on 21 April 2008. Eleven recipients of the QAEP, including one Lifetime Achievement Award, were also announced this year, and will be joining representatives of the winning businesses at tonight’s reception.
