Are you ready for Investment Fiji’s 2018 Prime Minister’s Internatio­nal Business Awards!

Saturday night’s event will be attended by leaders of the business community.

It will be a celebratio­n of success.

For the community plays a very important role in transformi­ng Fiji into a unified, prosperous, inclusive and progressiv­e modern nation.

Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimaram­a will be officiatin­g at the awards night.

It’s no secret that the Fijian economy is on its ninth consecutiv­e year of economic growth.

And we all know that the private sector is the engine of growth, while the Government is the provider of an enabling environmen­t that allows businesses to flourish. The re-election of the FijiFirst Government and Mr Bainimaram­a as Prime Minister has been welcomed by the business community.

It means the policies that have stimulated growth will continue to be implemente­d and expanded. The Government strongly believes collaborat­ion between the private and public sector is critical for the continued growth and sustainabi­lity of the Fijian economy. The 2018 Prime Minister’s Internatio­nal Business Awards is the premier event where not only the success of Fijian Businesses but their contributi­on towards Fiji’s thriving economy will be recognised.

For those intending to enter the awards next year, you should. The awards provide an opportunit­y for Fijian businesses such as yours to benchmark performanc­e, build capability, inspire to innovate, showcase service excellence, support job creation and boost employee morale.

The awards aspire to encourage local businesses to look beyond their reach, challenge their limitation, break convention­al barriers and punch above their weight through ingenious approaches. Any business, whether big or small, can contribute towards national growth and become leaders in their respective industries.

So if you want to witness the awards being given out then get your tickets from the Investment Fiji online portal. This year’s awards will be held on Saturday at the Sofitel Fiji Resort Ballroom, Nadi, from 6.30pm to 1am.

It’s an event you shouldn’t miss because of its benefits. It’s expected to be bigger and brighter this year.
