How the awards are judged

The judges were looking for stories of successful exporters with a vision of their international business.

The winners of the 2007 Export Awards were selected on the basis of how they identified an opportunity, how they established a strategy to enter or grow their business in a particular market, and how they plan to build n their success as part of their overall vision of their international business.

The judges were looking for companies with commitment to export, evidence of a successful strategy and a vision for the future. Size was not a consideration.
