WALES INNOVATION AWARDS

WHY DOES WALES NEED A NATIONAL INNOVATION AWARD?
Because Innovation deserves a much higher profile in Wales and much wider publicity than it currently receives. That is not to say that people aren’t talking about it. Everybody is TALKING about it; Innovation is the in-word. But comparatively few are DOING it, and it is the achievements of that few and their continuing efforts which the Wales Innovation Award will recognise and widely broadcast.

THE WALES QUALITY AWARD IS OUR HALLMARK.
Each year an increasing number of Welsh organisations, committed to improvement, enter the Awards. Driven by the EFQM Excellence Model, the process enables many organisations to find their areas of strength and areas for improvement. Winning the prestigious Wales Quality Award, or one of the prizes, is an accolade for any business and the process culminates in a presentation at an Award Dinner. Taking part in the Award process will provide entrants with a feedback report enabling each organisation to prioritise and plan improvement for the next year. This is a rigorous and cost effective improvement initiative for organisations to be involved with.
