THE Limerick Chamber Regional Business Awards will help underpin the recovery and create a sustainable future, the President of Limerick Institute of Technology has said as the awards were launched this Monday.
Now in it’s seventh year, Dr Vincent Cunnane said that recognising success of business at all levels, which the Chamber awards do, is hugely important.
“The culture of recognising success will help to underpin the recovery here and create a sustainable future. These awards are strategically important for all of us because they recognise success and I would urge all of you to encourage entries to these premier awards. You will be helping Limerick, the region and everyone therein,” he said.
More than 150 people attended the launch this week in the Castletroy Park Hotel, where Dave Griffin, Business Development Director, Dell EMC Limerick and winner of the 2016 business if the year award, said that the win came at a time of significant and positive change for the business and reaffirmed the role that the Limerick site plays within the wider business as well as the community.
“Last year Dell EMC was delighted to be named Business of the Year at the Limerick Chamber Regional Business Awards. The awards present a great way to shine a spotlight on the business community in Limerick and the innovation taking place across the Mid-West.
“Receiving this honour last year was extremely rewarding for the team that works at our campus here in Limerick, who were delighted to be recognised in this way. Globally we were able to showcase the recognition through the Dell EMC network and leverage the win to highlight the value of continued investment at the Limerick campus. I would encourage all companies – big and small – to enter these awards. They’re a great idea and well worth participating in,” said Mr Griffin.
The Awards celebrate business success across all sectors and scales, from SME’s right up to multinationals and closing date for entry is September 24 next with more info on www.limerickchamber.ie.
