Presentations to be streamed from HVIA National Awards Breakfast

The HVIA National Awards will be presented at a breakfast event on Friday 20th November with online coverage of the award presentations.

The event, at the Emporium South Brisbane will have capacity for 100 attendees and streaming capacity for members across Australia.

HVIA Chief Executive Todd Hacking said the standard of nominations for the awards defied the difficulties businesses had been facing throughout 2020.

“We were delighted to achieve a record number of nominations, and a huge congratulations goes to so many of our members for their efforts,” Mr Hacking said. “But it is the level of innovation and commitment from companies and individuals that is particularly inspiring.”

“Each award is considered by a dedicated judging panel and in all cases they have reported a fantastic calibre across the field.

“We look forward to honouring those achievements and finding out who the judges have selected for each award at the breakfast.

“It is also a great chance to pay tribute to those companies who have been with us since the beginning, as we celebrate 50 years since our organisation was founded.

“We are especially grateful to our principle partner NTI and award category sponsors Warby Tools and Moreton Hire, for their support in presenting our awards program and this event.”

Register to attend in person or online
