Time to Vote for the Most Successful Businesses in Europe
LONDON, January 10, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
Public Vote Showcasing Strength and Success Across European Business Opens Today at http://www.businessawardseurope.com
Over 400 businesses from 34 countries in Europe are competing to be named their country's 'National Public Champion' as the online public vote is now open in this year's European Business Awards sponsored by RSM.
Each company has posted a video on the European Business Awards website http://www.businessawardseurope.com profiling their business success, which the public can view and vote for between now and 1 March 2017.
The National Public Champion will be the company that receives the most votes in each country, with the winners announced on 6 March. Last year more than 227,000 people voted as thriving European companies were supported globally by their clients, staff and peers, as well as the general public.
The European Business Awards was set up to support the development of a stronger and more successful business community throughout Europe. This year it engaged with more than 33,000 businesses at entry stage. Lead sponsor RSM, a provider of audit, tax and consulting services to middle market businesses globally, has supported the European Business Awards since its inception.
Adrian Tripp, CEO of the European Business Awards said: "The public vote gives everyone the chance to watch and vote for successful businesses of all sizes and sectors, either home or abroad, with great stories to tell. So please show them your support, go to our web site http://www.businessawardseurope.com and vote today!"
Jean Stephens, CEO of RSM, the sixth largest network of independent audit, tax and consulting firms, with a presence in 43 European countries said: "The videos provide a fascinating insight into some of Europe's most inspiring businesses and the story of their success. This is a showcase of European business excellence and a testament that no matter how large or small, old or new, companies who have a true understanding of their financial and business landscape can thrive in all areas. Good luck to everyone in this round of the competition."
Immediately after the National Public Champions are announced, a second and final public vote will begin as the companies compete against each other to decide one overall European Public Champion.
Separately, the Awards' independent judges will review the videos and select 110 category finalists who will then go on to the Gala Final in May 2017 where the final winners, as well as the European Public Champion, will be announced.
