Our Group conducts business impact assessments on companies in connection with its expanding list of business recognition awards, which includes the SME100 Awards, HR Asia Awards and the Golden Bull Award. Utilising a range of research tools, surveys and verification methods, our Group ranks the nominee companies and awards prizes accordingly, and subsequently holds award ceremonies for all the winners. The awards and ceremonies provide recognition for all the nominee companies involved and serve as valuable marketing platforms for the nominee companies to network and grow their businesses. Participation in the HR Asia Awards also entitles nominee companies to a holistic and informative assessment of their employees and human resource practices and allows for useful benchmarking across industries and markets.
