THE SECOND ANNUAL SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS AWARDS The Second Annual Nautilus Project Sustainable Business Awards, in collaboration with the Gibraltar Federation of Small Businesses, took place in mid- July, praising local businesses for effecting green initiatives in the workplace. The awards were presented by Minister for Environment Dr John Cortes together with Eran Shay from GFSB and Lewis Stagnetto from the Nautilus Project. Earlier this year, companies in Gibraltar were invited to submit a presentation under the theme ‘New Decade, New Habits’, outlining their commitment to sustainability with a focus on green initiatives implemented over the past year. Throughout the evening, a total of 9 awards were handed out to local businesses that demonstrated outstanding green credentials, with Hassan’s Law Firm awarded the main prize - The Sustainable Business Award 2020. Marking nearly one year since its first publication, OTWO Magazine is honoured to have received the Sustainability Influencers Award. The other organisations selected for their outstanding green credentials were; Gibbeau, with the Award for Innovation; Eroski Centre Gibraltar as Green Business Leaders; Alameda Wildlife Conservation Park for Environmental Stewardship; Europa FC won the Sustainability Team of the Year award; Playtech won the Daring to be Greener Award; SM Seruya received the Sustainability Vision Award and the Rotary Club of Gibraltar obtained the Green Beacon Award.
