The second round of Diageo Africa Business Reporting Awards were launched on 4 March 2005.
Speaking at the launch, David Hampshire, Chairman, Diageo Africa, said, "2005 is a year of great opportunity for Africa and its people. Africa - and in particular business in Africa - is too rarely given the attention it deserves. We hope these awards will |
|
continue to make a positive contribution to overcoming inadequate reporting of business in Africa."
Building on the success of 2004, the 2005 awards included a new category for best website. They were presented on 4 July 2005 at Guildhall in the City of London in front of a diverse gathering of international media, political, and business leaders. |
