Following on from the phenomenal success of 2008, we will of course be continuing with the Metro Awards Ceremony and Gala Dinner.
CEOs of many Fortune 500 companies have discovered the strategic advantages of entering and winning corporate awards. Like actors and studio bosses who recognize how winning an Oscar can multiply their market value, boardrooms across the globe are seeing similar effects with industry awards.
The Metro Awards were introduced in 2008 to recognise excellence within the metro industry, and the evening was enjoyed by over 230 participants. The gala dinner was an excellent opportunity to relax, unwind and of course make those all-important contacts!
Nominations for the Metro Awards 2009 will open in October 2008.
