The best part of the webinar was seeing how entering industry awards can really build our reputation and give the team a confidence boost.

I found it extremely helpful hearing from judges and previous winners in what helped them. Not necessarily for the awards but for the general advice all round.  I really enjoyed the brief video at the beginning as a bit of an ice breaker too.

It was helpful to have a few more benefits for businesses applying and specific examples about the types of data and evidence to include.
