Don’t forget to nominate your favorite family business (even if it’s your own!) for a 2012 Family Business Award <http://www.familybusinessaward.com>
Consideration is open to any family business in Wisconsin, and the deadline for nominations is April 13. Awards will be announced at a special dinner and ceremony on May 10 at the Marriott Madison West.
Since the beginning of the program, 58 family-owned companies from around Wisconsin have been recognized for their contributions to their communities, their industries, and the economy. One family business will be selected for Grand Awards in each category of small (under 50 employees), medium (50-99), and large (100 or more) companies.
Special awards will also be given to companies excelling in a particular area.
Self-nominations are encouraged, and nominations can be made on behalf of the company by consultants, vendors, clients, or friends.
An independent panel of judges will select the award recipients.
Additional information about the program, including a list of past winners and nomination forms, can be found at www.familybusinessaward.com, or by calling 608-836-7500.
