Blue Donkey's MD Wins Top Regional Award

It's back to business as usual this morning for Sureya Landini, Managing Director of Blue Donkey Limited in Soham and clearly Friday, 13th has not brought bad luck for her. On the contrary, last night while coincidentally seated at table number 13, Sureya was recognised as a leading entrepreneur of the region, scooping the East of England, Businesswoman of the year 2003, Enterprise Award.

The prestigious award was launched in 1989 by the Cambridge Businesswoman's Network. It was established in recognition of the enormous potential offered by women in the region and as encouragement for others.Eligibility for entry for the Enterprise Award is restricted to those women, who have established their own companies with an annual turnover of at least £250,000. Two judges from the Institute of Directors, regional branch, visited Blue Donkey's offices in Soham just before Christmas as the final part of the judging process.

The winner was announced at last night's gala dinner and awards ceremony held at the Galleria, at Ipswich Town Football Club. Blue Donkey's Managing Director fought off strong competition form other outstanding women to win the coveted award and a host of prizes.

"It was a compliment to be up against finalists of such high calibre. I am delighted to walk away with this prestigious award - not just for myself but on behalf of the whole Blue Donkey team." explained Sureya, clearly delighted with this accolade bestowed upon her. "Our ongoing recruitment and training programme means we have some very exciting products to offer companies considering embarking on telemarketing campaigns." she added: "I really believe that what we do is extraordinary and telemarketing has a profound outcome if done well. We have seen how our work has made a huge impact on small businesses in the region - just like ours - as well as big multinationals."

Blue Donkey has developed a very strong brand in intelligent telemarketing products, which is all about using the telephone to build enduring business relationships for lead generation and research.
