VisitScotland eUpdate - January 2012
Welcome to the first eUpdate of 2012, which marks the start of the ‘Winning Years’ with the Year of Creative Scotland 2012 and the opportunities of both the Olympics and the Disney/Pixar film Brave.
It could be an especially winning year for you, if you take home a Scottish Thistle Award in November. The awards have been relaunched and are now open for entries until 2 March, so the time to think about an application is right now!
Based on industry consultation, we’ve made some changes to the awards. We’ll have four regional awards ceremonies, the winners of which will become the national finalists in November. We’ve also made them easier to apply for, and increased their role in providing knowledge, advice and support year-round.
In that respect, they are more than just another awards ceremony. They also complement the support offered by Skills Development Scotland, Business Gateway and the enterprise companies that together are there to help you make a success of your business.
We’re one team for tourism - and it’s worth celebrating.
Kind regards
Malcolm Roughead OBE
Chief Executive - VisitScotland
