AWARDS PROGRAMME

INSAM has a long standing relationship with various Russian educational institutes and is a member of the Geneva-based Russian-Swiss Business Club.  In association with the RSBC, INSAM offers awards to leading Russian businessmen and academics to reflect their success during the transition period and the irreproachability of their business practice.  This requires a careful selection process based on our Russian data sources providing up-to-date information on the quality of a company's business and on its performance.

One of the purposes of the award system is to allow Russian and Swiss business people to meet each other with a view to developing long-term relationships.

The award programme started in 2003 when there were three ceremonies.  The next events are:

25 February 2005	Gold Medal award for Management Quality in Montreux
20 December 2004	Award Ceremony in Geneva
11 June 2004	Gold Medal award in Moscow
17 May 2004	Gold Medal award in Geneva

The Gold Medal award is in conjunction with the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs.
