The finalists and winners of the Australian Growth Company Awards were announced earlier today via a virtual awards ceremony hosted on their LinkedIn page. Watch it here.
Launched in 2012, the awards celebrate excellence and recognise companies that demonstrate high rates of sustainable growth, innovation, integrity and contribution to the community.
Chairman of the Australian Growth Company Awards, Nick Humphrey acknowledged the impacts of COVID-19 bringing on-going challenges in 2021, saying “A pandemic is not going to stop us from recognising the extraordinary resilience and success that our finalists have achieved in the most trying of circumstances and the exceptional dedication and resolve of the management teams that have delivered these results. While we are hosting this year’s ceremony virtually for the second year, we genuinely look forward to when we can once again gather together as a community”.
