Welcome to The 7th annual International Business Awards.This year’s IBAs attracted more than 1,700 entries from organizations in more than 40 nations. We’re

gratified by the growth of the competition and the importance that organizations around the world haveattached to it. The vibrancy of the IBAs illustrates that an increasing number of organizations recognize the rolethat awards can play in generating positive brand awareness and rewarding executives and employees fortheir good work.

Despite the quality of entries received this year, it was harder than ever to be recognized in the IBAs. Only30% of all entries submitted have been honored as Stevie Award winners or Distinguished Honoree medalists.

Preliminary judging was conducted in May and June by business professionals around the world. Theiraverages scores determined the nominations that were eligible to be included in final judging. Members of theIBA’s Board of Distinguished Judges & Advisors, and five new language-specific judging panels, performedfinal judging in late June to select Stevie Award winners. All judges are acknowledged in this program.

After tonight we’ll have a busy autumn at the Stevie Awards.We’re currently accepting entries for two of our other competitions: the 7th annual Stevie Awards for

Women in Business, and the 5th annual Stevie Awards for Sales & Customer Service. Their final entry deadlines are 30 September and 31 December, respectively. Both welcome entries from organizations around the world.

You can learn all about our programs at www.stevieawards.com.Thank you for participating in The 2010 International Business Awards, and for joining us this evening.

Best wishes for continued success!Cordially,
