The Palace is calling for entries for the Queen's Awards for Enterprise 2009...

Top-performing electronics firms, large and small, are being urged to apply for the 2009 Queen's Awards for Enterprise - the Royal standard of excellence for outstanding business success, according to the publicity statement.

Note that fourteen of the winning companies from the 2008 Awards are connected to the electronics industry. (A reception for the winning 136 companies is being held at Buckingham Palace tonight.)

"A Queen's Award is a quality standard to which any business, in any sector, can and should aspire," claims Steve Brice, Secretary of The Queens' Awards Office.
"Winners consistently tell us how valuable their Award win has been to their business. It costs nothing to apply for a Queen's Award, and detailed feedback is given to unsuccessful applicants to help them work towards a successful Award application in a future year. So whether or not they win, a small investment of time in a Queen's Award application now can prove to be a very major investment in future business success."
More info about the business winners can be found at: www.queensawards.org.uk

The deadline for the 2009 Awards is midnight on 31 October 2008.
