2005 CUI Brownie Awards - Same Great Acknowledgement, Better Process:
04/29/2005
Every year, the CUI Brownie Awards get better and better. Last year saw new benchmarks for excellence set in terms of the number of submissions, as well as the geographic reach of both submissions and awards. Last year's overall winner, TOHU or the Cirque du Soleil from Montreal, Quebec, has continued to win acclaim and is fast becoming a regional draw as people come to be entertained and to explore the facilities. Visit www.canurb.com then click on CUI Brownies for details of last year's winners.
In response to feedback from the Awards Committee and people in the field we have made a number of improvements to the process. When you click on the webpage, you will be asked only to respond to an "intent to nominate" form. The deadline listed on the page is there simply to help us gauge the level of interest on a geographic basis and the scope of projects to be nominated. The deadline for submission of the actual application is much later in the year - see the website for details - and guides you through a step-by-step description of the information required. We hope that asking for more detailed information later in the process will help you while helping us. So get your colleagues talking and put on your thinking caps. The CUI Brownie Awards are Canada's only nationally recognized award dedicated to the brownfields industry. Your expertise and innovation deserves to be recognized. As with last year, we will announce finalists and only reveal the winners at the conference. We heard from members of the network that this was a welcome innovation, and we look forward to this year's crop of projects and programs.
