How it Works
The Awards

The nominations can be made in different ways:

Nominations open on 17th December 2009 and close on 31st January 2010.
How are the awards judged?
The judging panel is made up of respected members of the Jewish business community who will meet after the closing date for entries to select a shortlist of possible award-winners. These shortlists will be announced two weeks before the awards ceremony.
The award winners will be announced at TrainE-TraidE's Business Lunch 2010 which will take place on February 24th 2010. Tickets for the event will be available nearer the date.
What do you win?
Winners of each category win a TrainE-TraidE Jewish Business Award Plaque presented at the Awards Ceremony.
