These awards are a celebration of the vital work that European Associations do on behalf of their members to ensure their voices are heard throughout Europe.  They were announced at a ceremony attended by 200+ senior association executives representing a diverse cross-section of European industry and markets on 28th March at Hotel Le Plaza in Brussels. 
 
Claire Wormsley, Founder and Managing Director of GCN Events said: 
“We were delighted that so many European Organisations entered and attended.  It was a fabulous occasion and an opportunity to recognise the exceptional quality and excellence that all our finalists display in their fields of expertise.  It is important to celebrate these hard-won achievements and shine a spotlight on the incredible advancements that associations and trade bodies can make, both within their industry and for society as a whole.” 
 
The ceremony was hosted by Brain Maguire – journalist, producer, broadcaster and specialist in European politics and business.
