OSU Honors Top Family Businesses at Austin Awards Event in Portland
CORVALLIS, Ore. – Four Oregon companies received the 2006 Excellence in Family Business Awards presented by Oregon State University’s Austin Family Business Program at a ceremony held Nov. 16 at the Oregon Zoo in Portland. The awards recognize the achievements of family businesses in areas such as innovation, entrepreneurship, commitment and community involvement. The OSU College of Business’ Austin Family Business Program serves family-owned companies through workshops, seminars and family business management courses.Businesses are nominated for the awards by companies and individuals. The nominees then must go through two rounds of judging, which includes a written statement and an oral presentation. The awards are open to any family business in the country. This year, more than 200 businesses were nominated for the awards and 60 went through the application process. In addition to the four winners, eight businesses were selected as finalists and also honored at the gala event at the Oregon Zoo. Thuy Tran, assistant director of the Austin Family Business Program, said the finalists and winners get more out of the awards than the physical plaque and ceremony.
