WHY PARTICIPATE?

SME100 winners are entitled to use the SME100 logo in all their corporate collaterals and

websites. Being an SME100 company is a powerful statement of your achievements and

build confidence among current and prospective clients, staff and vendors.

As many of the winners are of a size and presence that pre-qualifies them for public listing,

the SME100 is also positioned as a prelude and stepping stone to an initial public offering.

Equally important, we work with media partners to profile selected winners and the full list of

winners are published in media and the official website to enable more prospective clients

and business partners to identify you as a great company to work with.
