RIVAL Group wins Business Media magazine distinction

The 2007 Chronicle, the publication of Business Media monthly attached to the "Media&Marketing" weekly, included a summary of the year 2007 as well as a list of companies from event management, POS and promotional materials branch that were granted special distinctions. RIVAL Group was rewarded for its involvement in the two months long Expedition in the Footsteps of Benedict the Pole.

The nomination was a result of a year long efforts on the part of the RIVAL Group team. In 2007 the company trebled its turnover and net profit, employed new staff and considerably improved its equipment stocks. We consider winning a tender and signing a long-term agreement with one of the biggest Polish companies as our great success.

The distinction granted for the involvement in the Expedition in the Footsteps of Benedict the Pole is a reward for many months of hard work supporting the activities of the Expedition organizer and participants.

Business Media editorial team granted its distinction to three more event management companies: Paprika - for development, Walk Group - for the event organized for Shell at the Poznań racetrack on the occasion of the firm's 60th year of cooperation with Ferrari and Incentive Concept Poland for online PR activities. The nominated agencies include: Allegro, Em Lab, Euro RSCG 4D, Boomerang, Essence Music, Fastline, GoodFellows, Concept Poland, Jet Events, Kunst Promotion, Open2be, PR Live, Prowokator, Rossegger, Sound of Music, STX Jamboree, Tequila\Polska.

We wish to congratulate all the nominated and awarded companies on their success!
