Well-thought-out gifts are meaningful and leave a long-lasting impression. The same is true when giving recognition. What makes recognition meaningful is the symbol behind it. What will the award represent? What kind of story should it tell? Let's work together to craft an award you can't find anywhere else. https://lnkd.in/g9fyzK3

Activities: May inaugurate, address the audience, or present awards. Significance: Holds a central position, often invited due to their prominence, expertise, or relevance to the occasion. 𝗚𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗛𝗼𝗻𝗼𝗿: Role: Holds a position of honor but not necessarily the central figure. Activities: May speak, present, or participate in a specific capacity. Significance: Recognized for achievements or significance, contributing to the event's prestige without necessarily being the main focus. In summary, the Chief Guest is the primary figure, while the Guest of Honor holds a position of distinction without necessarily being the central figure in the event.

Still Thinking of Entering? There's Still Time! There is still plenty of time to submit a knockout entry into the 2024 Event Awards. Past entrants have reported needing only a couple of hours to pull together their entry...don't forget - you've already done all the thinking, designed and delivered the event or achievement - all you have to do is put it into words and tell us about it! With the new, simplified entry form, with a maximum of 2,600 words, it's easier than ever to enter. Tell the Judges about you event or achievement, what did you achieve, what were the complexities, how was it creative and an asset to the industry, what were your challenges? If you start today, that's only 434 words a day to get to the finish line! https://lnkd.in/g8P-s-NG

A lot of nominations went out today (check all inboxes, including junk), so I thought it would be a good time to outline the process for those who may not be 100% clear. Nominations close on 13th October. You can nominate yourself or someone else, and all nominations are anonymous. Nominate here: https://lnkd.in/gb8YWA7p If you wish to proceed to the next round and be considered for an award, you'll need to apply via this link: https://lnkd.in/e77EgtEf, select your category, and answer all five questions. Each question is worth 20 points, so it's important not to leave any unanswered. Finalists will be announced before 13th November. If you're nominated, there's no obligation to proceed. In the past, some people have informed us that they don’t wish to participate, and that’s entirely their choice. However, we will still notify them of the nomination because we believe it's special that someone took the time to recognise them. We want to acknowledge not just the nominee but also the person who made the effort to nominate them. So, everyone who is nominated will be informed, but only those who complete the full application will be eligible to win. If you're unable to attend the gala, you can arrange for a representative or someone already attending to accept the award on your behalf if you're announced as the winner. Please note, we won’t be able to post out awards. Finally, tickets are selling fast! The early bird rate is available for anyone booking before 1st October. Grab your tickets here: https://lnkd.in/gfEeYuvd - It's always a sell-out event and an absolutely fun-filled night!
