These awards recognise and reward those companies that successfully combine the economic viability of their businesses with sustainable management. <\/p>\n

The Biodiversity Foundation of the Ministry for Ecological Transition has opened the registration period to submit candidatures for a new edition of the European Business Environment Awards (EBAE), in its Spanish section.<\/p>\n

These awards, organised since 1987 by the European Commission, are organised to recognise those companies that successfully combine the economic viability of their businesses with the protection of the environment through innovation in management, processes, products or services they offer, business cooperation or combining business and biodiversity.<\/p>\n

In Spain, the European Business Awards for the Environment have been held since 1997 and represent great prestige and recognition for companies both in society and in the world of business and sustainability; they improve their visibility and open up new business opportunities for them. The Biodiversity Foundation has been the entity in charge of managing the Spanish section since 2013. <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

These awards are aimed at private companies with their own legal personality and headquarters in Spain that have committed to the environment and have a commitment to sustainable development. The terms and conditions of the call can be consulted on the Foundation’s website<\/a>. <\/p>\n

This year, companies can apply for 5 different categories: Management, Process, Product and\/or Service, International Business Cooperation and Business and Biodiversity. In addition, each award will be endowed with two awards, one for small and micro enterprises and the other for medium and large enterprises. <\/p>\n

The deadline for submitting applications will end on November 12, 2019 and interested companies must complete the official application forms<\/a>.<\/p>\n

302 APPLICATIONS SUBMITTED SINCE THE 2013-2014 EDITION<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Since the 2013\/14 edition, a total of 302 Spanish companies have submitted their candidacy for these awards, of which 36 have been awarded in one of the categories. Thus, in the previous edition, His Majesty the King of Spain was in charge of presenting the awards to the 12 award-winning Spanish companies, in a ceremony that was held on June 5, 2018, World Environment Day. All of them subsequently participated in the European edition, where five companies received an additional award or special recognition among 161 participants from all over Europe. <\/p>\n

As in other editions, the jury of these awards will be made up of renowned experts in the field of business and sustainability. This will guarantee the selection of the best business bets that support innovation and the definition of new models aimed at the ecological transition. <\/p>\n

The companies awarded in this national phase will later be able to opt for the awards organized by the European Commission for the second quarter of 2020, where they will compete with companies from other countries of the European Union. Only the winners and finalists of the national sections will be eligible to participate in the European section. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"class_list":["post-97859887","notas_de_prensa_fb","type-notas_de_prensa_fb","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nThe deadline for submitting applications to the Spanish section of the European Business Awards for the Environment, coordinated by the Biodiversity Foundation, is now open -
