The awards were for Australia's Best Small Business, Entrepreneur of the Year, presented by the Australian Institute of Engineers, Best Creative Small to Medium Sized Enterprise, presented by the Hong Kong Australian Business Association, and NSW Exporter of the Year in the category of Arts and Entertainment, presented by Austrade and the Australian Institute of Export.
The Hong Kong spectacular was produced for the Hong Kong Tourism Commission. Described as the largest of its kind ever attempted, the Symphony of Light celebrates the permanent illumination of 18 of Hong Kong's most prominent buildings. The sensory mediums of the 14 minute show include high powered lasers, architectural lighting, fireworks and an original soundtrack which is simulcast to local radio stations and can be dialed into via mobile phones.
The company's recognition as best small business was based on the company that had best established strength in the market and demonstrated its ability to innovate and adapt within a constantly changing business environment. It was presented to Laservision by David Kosh, founder of Palamedia, Australia's largest distributor of Finance and Business Media.
