SP Jain, Founder of SP Jain School
Gandhi Creations’ first ever India Australia Business & Community Awards (IABCA) supporting a global charity White Ribbon Australia on Friday 31st of October 2014 at Sydney Town Hall have announced the finalists who are running for the winners award in 10 categories. Says Sonia Gandhi, “It’s about time that we as Indian community got recognised for all the good work we are doing. IABC Awards will bring together the community and show itself in a concerted manner of all its contributions that some of our hard working members are putting in in the field of art, culture, business, restaurants and young achievers.”
Sonia adds, “We have used a panel of judges who have for the last four weeks through a rigorous laborious process decided on a list of finalists out of the 107 nominations we got for this year’s awards. I am still getting many emails with people saying ‘oh we missed out’. We are keeping their details as there’s always next year when they can enter.”
IABCA aims to showcase India from a cultural and business perspective recognising the role played by Indian Australians in shaping this state via an awards ceremony. The concept will witness businesses and communities celebrating over a black tie gala dinner while experiencing a cultural spectacular.
Speakers will include White Ribbon Chairman and Ambassador, Andrew O’Keefe, Channel 7 and a keynote address from The Hon Victor Dominello MP, Minister for Citizenship and Communities.
“I am delighted to extend my warmest greetings to everyone attending the inaugural India Australia Business & Community Awards. I would like to commend the India Australia Business & Community Awards on this initiative, and support its commitment to acknowledging the outstanding achievements of Indian-Australians. On behalf of the NSW Government, I wish everyone attending the India Australia Business & Community Awards a successful and enjoyable celebration.”
– The Hon Mike Baird, Premier of New South Wales
