Call for entries to IABC Gold Quill Awards
IABC Africa invites local practitioners to distinguish themselves and their teams by participating in a competition that exposes best examples of thought leadership, strategic management, creativity, resourcefulness and successful solutions.
Says Sue Beaumont, regional chair of IABC Africa: "The Gold Quill Awards are the mark of global distinction and are regarded as the highest level of professional acknowledgement within business communication today. The 2006 awards saw three local entries winning quill awards and we hope to increase that number this year".
The Gold Quill Awards are open to members and non-members of IABC. The 2007 Gold Quill Call for Entries form is available on www.iabc.com. You can enter and pay online.
