The Black Country is full of exciting and innovative businesses and the Queen’s Awards for Enterprise is a great way of celebrating their success. Whether a small business with a great innovative product or service, or a larger company running an impressive social mobility programme, this award is a prestigious way to recognise your contribution to enterprise.
This interactive workshop helped people to better understand the benefits of entering the awards and how best to complete the application. It described the four fields to consider:
➢ Innovation;
➢ International Trade;
➢ Sustainable Development;
➢ Promoting Opportunity (through social mobility) - and explain the eligibility criteria and timetable to follow.
Participants heard from previous winners and benefitted from their experiences. They will also heard how best to write the best bids, telling the story in such a way to stand out from other entries and it also had free access to an online Winning Awards course for a short period.
