Comms Channel Awards |
|
|
The industry's most prestigious Awards have now been running for 4 years and are organised jointly between Comms Business Magazine and VNU Exhibitions, owners of Comms Channel Expo.
The Awards will took place on the evening of Tuesday 10th May 2006 at the National Motor Cycle Museum, Birmingham in what is without doubt the industries biggest and most glittering night out.
The Awards themselves are highly sought after accolades.
These awards are independently judged, are designed to genuinely recognise excellence in the channel and aimed mainly at the reseller rather than the manufacturer.
