KUCHING, Sept 30: ‘Anak Sarawak Awards’, Malaysia’s first awards ceremony dedicated to the business events industry, is making a comeback for its 10th edition in conjunction with Business Events Sarawak’s (BESarawak) annual signature convention, TriBE Assembly this Nov 29.
The famed Anak Sarawak Awards will be themed ‘Awakening the Spirit in the Rainforest’ symbolising the resurgence of business events and the courage of Sarawak’s industry partners to show determination and leadership after a particularly tough two years due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
According to BESarawak’s statement yesterday (Sept 29), the outstanding achievement and notable contributions will be announced in five categories: Young Leader Award, Business Events Award, Outstanding Achievement Award, Journalism Award, and Sarawak Legacy Award.
Sarawak Legacy Award is the newest category this year to recognise conventions that focus on delivering environmental, social, and governance (ESG) impacts.
Introducing this category marks legacy impact going into full force since Sarawak officially embarked on the positive and long-term impacts of business events as the industry’s new direction in 2021.
Award winners will each receive a maximum claimable of RM10,000 to attend any business event in their field of interest anywhere in the world.
Anak Sarawak Awards is open to all business event planners from Malaysia and overseas who have organised events in Sarawak, registered BEPartners, and national and international media.
Entries for the Anak Sarawak Awards must be submitted by Oct 31, 2022. For more information, go to their website or contact Dylan Redas Noel at 082-242-526 or email drnoel@sarawakcb.com.
Anak Sarawak Awards is supplementary to the main event, Business Events Tribal Meet, commonly known as TriBE Assembly.
TriBE Assembly will be themed ‘Reimagine Our Future’ where dialogues and education sessions will centre around the future of business events from multiple angles featuring prominent associations, industry players, media, and keynote speakers from around the world.
TriBE Assembly is expected to draw a crowd of more than 200 business event leaders from Malaysia, Asia Pacific, and Europe. — DayakDaily
