Wow what a big night was had at the ballroom of the Sofitel in Brisbane for the Queensland 2008 Telstra Business Awards. My business Design House Fraser Coast was one of the 28 finalists out of over 4,500 applications statewide. The host was Anne Fulwood and I was a Finalist in the Palm Micro-Business Award for businesses with five employees or fewer. I was first onstage for the evening to receive the Finalist Award.
I was extremely honoured to be a Finalist and among all the other elite businesses and Finalists in the room.
A big ‘Congratulations’ to Mumentum who won the category and the two other finalists hottie.com.au and River City Cruises.
I’m glad my category was announced first as I could then relax and enjoy the evening knowing I didn’t have to do a speech in front of 500 people! The food was delicious, the drinks flowed and the conversation lively and interesting. Afterwards I spoke with Anne Fulwood about her Media Consultancy Company and Lote Tuqiri who was staying at the Sofitel to play football today (Wallabies Vs the All Blacks) !
