The Galway Chamber Gala Ball and Business Awards 2015 in association with Shannon Airport were launched this week.

Celebrating Innovation and Creativity, the presentation of the Awards will take place on Saturday, November 7, in the Salthill Hotel.

Speaking at the launch President Frank Greene said that the awards aim to recognise and promote SMEs, Start-ups and established Businesses/Companies from all over Galway which embrace creativity and innovation to survive and grow.

“As well as providing the companies involved with a valuable platform, the awards also lend credibility in the market place. Many previous award winners have gone on to become industry leaders.

“We have no doubt that many of this year's entrants and short-listed nominees will emulate their success,” he said.
