Officials from Qatar Tourism and the World Confederation of Businesses (WORLDCOB) during a meeting recently.
Doha: The prestigious The BIZZ AMEA Awards 2021 will be held in Qatar from November 23-26 at The St. Regis Doha. As part of the preparations for the much anticipated event, the Qatar Tourism has met with the World Confederation of Businesses (WORLDCOB) to discuss details of the programme.
WORLDCOB is an international organisation founded in 2004 in Houston, Texas, in the US with a primary mission dedicated to promoting business development and boosting the growth of leading businesses in every country through special tools such as The BIZZ Awards, the CSR international standard WORLDCOB- CSR, and the WORLDCOB TRUST SEAL (WTS). These awards are known as one of the world’s most important business awards offering the global business community a range of benefits that aid their further development.
In the past, Qatari companies such as Doha Bank, West Bay Petroleum, and Qatar Airways have been recognised for business excellence at these awards which have previously been held in cities such as Paris, New York, Hong Kong, Rome, Hawaii, Monte Carlo, and San Francisco, among others; offering members the opportunity to live the BIZZ experience in a different location each year.
This year WORLDCOB has already received a warm welcome from Qatar by receiving more than 50 applications and still growing from the local companies.
Christoph Hodapp from Qatar Tourism’s Business Events stated: “Business Events is a substantial growth sector for Qatar Tourism and the country. As borders reopen, we are glad to host events in Qatar once again. Through welcoming global events such as THE BIZZ AMEA Awards to Qatar, we introduce the destination to newer audiences. With seamless service excellence, world-class venues, and an ecosystem that enhances and complements business events, Qatar is a compact destination with outsize offerings”.
Jesus Moran, Founder and President of WORLDCOB added: “We are excited to have our first international event after the pandemic in this great city. And we are honoured and grateful for the support of Qatar Tourism. Our more than 200 guests from almost 50 different countries will experience a unique networking experience and cultural entertainment, and city tours. THE BIZZ AMEA Awards will host activities encouraging business integration, networking, and tourism, all in an exciting new destination”.
WORLDCOB invites all companies that are interested in applying for THE BIZZ AWARDS by submitting their applications online. Companies and institutions will then go through a one hundred point scale of complete business excellence questionnaire which will evaluate them in criteria such as: Business Leadership, Management Systems, Quality of Products and/or Services, Business Creativity and Innovation, Corporate Social Responsibility and Achievements and Awards.
Companies and institutions who receive 90 points or more will be considered to have achieved Business Excellence and are thus selected to receive the world’s most important business recognition, THE BIZZ, where each winner is divided by the country they represent. Companies that receive THE BIZZ Awards for the first time will be evaluated based on two categories, Inspirational and Entrepreneurial. However, companies that receive THE BIZZ Awards for the second time or more may receive different recognitions such as: Peak of Success Awards, Beyond Success Awards, Be a Legend Awards, Glory Awards, Pinnacle Awards and Victorious Awards.
