Five Reasons to Enter the BIAs
The deadline to enter this year’s Business Innovation Awards (BIA) is approaching! The BIAs are sponsored by Gibtelecom and recognise and reward GFSB members who are shaking things up and bringing something new to their sector. Here are five reasons why you should apply:
1: Brand Visibility: Achieving recognition or nomination at the awards can enhance your visibility in Gibraltar and raise your profile. Being seen as an innovator can have a positive impact on your brand.
2: Leave Your Comfort Zone: The BIAs require you to pitch your new idea/product/service to a panel of experts. It’s an opportunity to communicate what you’re doing and leave your comfort zone.
3: Meet other innovators: The awards ceremony attracts media attention and gives you a platform to connect with other entrepreneurs, innovators and investors.
4: Win a Prize: The prize is £2,000 worth of tech and communications equipment. Not bad eh? This could boost your business and support l future innovation and growth.
5: Boost Your Business: Ebike’s Stuart Hedley, recommends signing up. “The process of applying and preparing for the BIA gave us the opportunity to focus on the importance of innovation throughout our business practices. Winning the award was a bonus that continues to pay dividends, raising our profile in the business community as well as with our customers.”
