Last night at the Vancouver Convention Centre the best and brightest entrepreneurs gathered to celebrate each other at the BC Small Business Awards. Tony Munday of Munday Media & Design was the successful winner of the Premier’s People‘s Choice Category sponsored the Government of BC.

“The exposure this award has created for my business is exceptional,” Munday said. “The voting process, top 10 announcement, top five announcement and now winning the final award has created over four months of story telling about our business over social media. The fact that our award is people’s choice makes us feel very appreciated by the community.”

The Premier’s People’s Choice Award celebrates BC’s amazing entrepreneurs by recognizing a small business that is at the heart of their community. The Premier’s People’s Choice Award is presented to a BC small business that can demonstrate that they have the unwavering and loyal support of their community. This award is for a small business that can show that their community thinks they go above and beyond.

“The exposure it has created for the South Okanagan is also great. Representing a small business from a small town in the provincial landscape shows that there are great entrepreneurs and talent outside of the Lower Mainland.”

Minister Bruce Ralston, BC Minister of Jobs, Trade and Technology tweeted, “It was my pleasure to present this year’s Premier’s People’s Choice Award to @TonyMunday of Munday Media & Design of #OliverBC. Congratulations to all of @SmallBusinessBC Award winners and nominees that work hard to make BC successful for people. #SBBCAwards”.
