The Gold Coast Business Excellence Awards

The Gold Coast Business Excellence Awards celebrates their 25th year, during this time the Awards have grown to be recognised as the region’s most comprehensive and prestigious business awards, offering meaningful benefits to the wider Gold Coast business community.

Primarily beginning as a vehicle to recognise family business, the Gold Coast Business Excellence Awards have developed to now encompass a category for almost every type of business enterprise.

Today, the Awards seek to contribute to the self-image and identity of Gold Coast business and to foster pride in this community. They seek to highlight the growing importance of the Gold Coast as a business hub and recognise leading businesses with a view to encouraging others.

Each month, awards are presented in 11 categories. At the end of the year, all the monthly winners vie for annual awards in each category and compete for the Business of the Year Award honour at a black-tie Gala Awards Dinner held in November at The Star Gold Coast.

Powertec Telecommunications celebrates the honour of winning the September IT and Digital Business Award sponsored by Griffith University. General Manager Samantha Clifton attended the award ceremony at Griffith University Gold Coast campus to receive the award from Professor David Grant, Pro Vice-Chancellor (School of Business).

“I am very happy that the hard work put in by Powertec staff has been acknowledged with the presentation of this prestigious award from the Gold Coast City Council. It comes at an auspicious time in our business where we are about to launch our 25th birthday celebration year. With the explosion of mobile data consumption and connectivity, I have great confidence that the next 25 years in this industry will be a continuation of this exciting time,” commented Samantha Clifton.

Coincidently, 2020 marks the 25th Anniversary for Powertec Telecommunications as an innovative leading Gold Coast business. From humble beginnings in 1995 as a one-man team on the Gold Coast, Powertec Telecommunications has grown into an international operation with offices in NSW, Victoria, WA, QLD, NT and New Zealand. The driving force behind the development of the business is to deliver individuals and businesses with solutions to help stay connected.
