Associations Network has, 11th March, announced the shortlist for the International and European Association Awards which recognise excellence in leadership, development and service across global membership organisations.
The shortlist is the result of a rigorous judging process, carried out by a panel of influential association leaders, all focused on the continuous improvement of International and European associations.
The International and European Association Awards Ceremony will take place on Monday 11 April 2016 in Berlin, Germany, at Axica, an exclusive conference and convention venue in the city’s historic centre.
Associations Network’s Executive Director, Damian Hutt, says:
“We have been delighted with the response to the International and European Association Awards, the fourth in our Association Awards series.
“The awards are a no-fee initiative for associations – they don’t pay to nominate or to attend the ceremony if they are shortlisted. And Importantly the categories are chosen according to where associations are developing their services and events the most. We believe in associations, and the work that they do and we are proud to have been supporting them both behind the scenes with our unique content and communities for 10 years, as well as recognising their employees and them as organisations for their dedication and success.”
