Why did Identity apply for a Queen’s Award in International Trade?
Michael Gietzen, Identity’s managing director, has always regarded the Queen’s Awards as the epitome of business success and felt that this would be a powerful means to differentiate Identity from competitors. Over the last five years, Identity has expanded rapidly and remains, despite the pandemic, one of the UK’s fastest growing agencies. The process of applying for the award was revealing in its own right. It focussed the team’s minds on what they were doing exceptionally well and where creative strengths lay. It also highlighted further international opportunities – so the application process was a very worthwhile exercise in its own right.
What does it mean for Identity to receive a Queen’s Award?
There is no doubt that a Queen’s Award is the most prestigious business award that the UK offers. Winning the Award brings Identity further worldwide recognition, increased commercial value, greater publicity and, considering the turbulence created throughout the events industry by the Covid pandemic, an incredible boost to staff morale. Leaving the pandemic aside, the Award is the ‘stamp of approval’ recognised throughout the world. The endorsement provided by the trusted Royal Emblem demonstrates that Identity is an outstanding British company. Congratulations have been received from existing clients, prospective clients, as well as suppliers and the media. Winning has helped further cement Identity’s position as one of the UK’s most successful, dynamic and progressive event agencies.
