Jointly organised by the Association of Small & Medium Enterprises and the Rotary Club of Singapore, EYA is the oldest and one of the most recognized business accolades in Singapore that honours local Entrepreneurs who have established and sustained a successful and profitable business on a national platform.
EYA heightens awareness and boosts the image of Entrepreneurs, their company and brand, as well as their products and services. Participating in EYA also adds credibility to the company, creating more credibility for Entrepreneurs when dealing with partners and clients, domestically and abroad. In addition, EYA serves as an important recognition and validation of employees’ efforts, thereby boosting employee morale and affirming employees’ commitment to the company. This translate into better talent recruitment and retention for the company.
