The 2013 BRW Client Choice Awards finalists were published in today’s edition of BRW. If you have not had a chance to see the publication yet, the finalists and their award categories are listed below.
Finalists are those firms who have performed in the top of their category in Beaton’s Annual Business and Professions Study (ABPS) – the largest independent study of clients of professional services firms in the world. The study took place in November 2012 and firms who subscribe to the output will be able to receive their Beaton Benchmarks reports from late March 2013.
Winners of the 2013 BRW Client Choice Awards will be announced at the 10th anniversary awards dinner in Sydney on Wednesday 13 March and published in BRW magazine on Thursday 14 March. BRW will contact all finalists regarding tickets to the dinner or click here for more information.
