Welcome to the 5th annual American Business Awards — “The Stevie ® Awards.” 

The Stevie Awards were created to honor and generate public recognition of the efforts, 

accomplishments, and positive contributions of companies and business people worldwide. Beginning 

with The American Business Awards in 2002, The International Business Awards in 2003, The Stevie 

Awards for Women in Business in 2004, and the SellingPower Sales Excellence Awards in 2006, our 

mission is to raise the profile of exemplary companies and individuals among the press, the business 

community, and the general public. In short order the Stevie has become one of the world’s most coveted 

awards. The Stevies have been called the “the business world’s own Oscar ® Awards.” 

This year’s competition attracted more than 2,000 nominations from companies of every size 

and industry from across the country. All nominations that received an average score of 7.0 out of a 

possible 10 in the preliminary round of judging became Finalists, were eligible to be considered for a 

Stevie Award, and are acknowledged in this program. 

Every company that earned Finalist recognition is a winner. Becoming a Finalist means that 

objective business professionals concurred that your accomplishments are deserving of widespread 

recognition, and you are to be congratulated for that. 

Thank you for participating in The 2007 American Business Awards, and for joining us this evening. 

Best wishes for continued success!
