Winners will be announced at the Awards Night which will be live streamed by Boardroom.media to a global audience. The 2017 East Coles Corporate Performance Awards Night will be held at the Ivy Ballroom on Thursday, 21 September. The incredibly talented electric violin artist Jane Cho will be performing on the night. Jane has also headlined world-class events for World Cup Racing, from Dubai through to London, and Australian Fashion Weeks. Entertainment will also include a fashion show with models kindly supplied by Bella Management, accessories from Oroton and jewellery from Paspaley.

All proceeds from the event will go to Transplant Australia. Transplant Australia is a national charity representing transplant recipients, donor families, living donors and all those touched by organ and tissue donation and transplantation. Transplant Australia saves lives.

This prestigious annual event is voted on by over 50 prominent financial services organisations, where equities analysts from both fund managers and brokerage houses score the S&P/ASX200 stocks they cover across 25 categories. The scores are then used to create league tables, with the idea being to provide a feedback mechanism between the investment community and the S&P/ASX200 to enhance market efficiency.
