• Receive external recognition - Leading experts in investor relations and corporate communications will decide winners through a scrupulous judging process. Entering is a great chance to reinforce your corporate reputation
• Demonstrate the hard work of your internal teams - Celebrate the people in your company committed to delivering outstanding corporate reports and investor relations work. Applaud those setting the standard for excellence
• Acknowledge the areas you could improve - Entering the awards is an opportunity to recognise the communications strategies that you could work on in the future
