Pacific Business Awards
Given the achievements and impact that business leaders have on the Auckland business community, and especially in our Local Board community, I’d like to take this opportunity to acknowledge the recipients of this year’s Pacific Business Trust Awards who were announced at the Awards Ceremony attended by the Minister for Pacific Peoples, Hon Aupito William Sio.
I’d also like to take this opportunity to refer to Award Recipient Elia Chan, Founder and Managing Director of MyRivr Technologies. The Pacific Innovation Award was awarded to MyRivr as a business that has delivered a positive outcome, whether it is tangible value, creation of a new market or competitive advantage. I had the honour of meeting Mr Chan at the Solomon Group health and wellbeing workshop last Friday, in Wiri, and hearing about his work and how he has expanded his business on a global scale. We have exceptional talent among us and I strongly recommend that Mr Chan be invited to share his story with our different community groups and business associations, as appropriate.
The 2020 Pacific Business Trust Award Winners are:
· Pacific Business Enterprise Award Winner: SUNPIX – awarded to a business that demonstrated innovation, strategic thinking and a track record of sustainable growth.
· Pacific Social Enterprise Award Winner: Le Va – awarded to Pacific organisations that are led by an economic, social, cultural, or environmental mission consistent with a community benefit, such as reinvesting profits back into the community.
· Pacific Innovation Award Winner: MYRIVR – awarded to a business that has delivered a positive outcome, whether it is tangible value, creation of a new market or competitive advantage.
· Pacific Woman in Business Award Winner: Elena Ikenasio, Bethel Hair & Beauty – recognises successful Pacific women who own their own business.
· Pacific Youth Entrepreneur Award Winner: Alexia Hildertidou, GirlBoss NZ – awarded to Pacific young people between the ages of 18 to 24 who successfully runs their own business.
· Pacific Business Entrepreneur Award Winner: Saia Latu, TROW – awarded to Pacific entrepreneurs who own their business.
· Pacific Legacy Award Winner: Mike Pero – acknowledges and honours Pacific business leaders and Pacific businesses that have consistently been successful in their business.
Ōtara-Papatoetoe Local Board Community and Auckland Council
