Presenting Sponsor, Manitoba Lotteries
The Manitoba Chambers of Commerce is proud to recognize the finalists and recipients of its 2010 Manitoba Business Awards.
The recipients were announced to a crowd of over 400 on November 3 at the Manitoba Business Awards Gala Dinner.
For the first time we have dedicated a specific ‘profile page’ for each finalist and each recipient so you can easily access information about them (video profile, link to company website, ‘in their own words’ feature and, in the case of the recipients, an award picture) in one spot.
What’s more, at the bottom of each page there are icons of the various social media platforms so you can send the page to your own LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, etc. pages.
The finalists and recipients are listed below. Before you scan them, please click here to find out about all the people and sponsors that help make this event such a success – our deep gratitude to them all.
Check out our Gala Scrapbook here and a recap of our “Grand MBA Twitter Experiment” here.
