Energising Business, Locally

19 October 2007

Spreading business skills and knowledge is one of the keys to economic prosperity in any community. Our business regards business award programs as one of the best ways to share business know-how more broadly within regional communities.

That's why we support the 22 business awards programs across central and western Victoria and also in metropolitan Melbourne. Our support for these awards forms part of our commitment to our customers.

We believe business excellence awards are one of the best ways to discover local business success stories, in turn lifting the quality and success of enterprises in the region. The awards allow other businesses in the region to benchmark themselves against the very best and learn from the achievements and strategies of their local and regional peers.

CitiPower and Powercor CEO Shane Breheny also said the awards provide a strong competitive advantage for businesses being nominated and chosen as overall business category winners.

"The awards provide a powerful promotional platform which finalists can leverage in their marketing and communications strategies, and in this way, further promote the level of business excellence we know exists in Victoria.'' Mr Breheny said.
