Nominations for “The Entrepreneur - LinkedPune”

Hi,

One more initiative from LinkedPune. Please nominate yourself or your friend in LinkedPune group for the “The Entrepreneur - LinkedPune” award.


This award will not give the recipient any trophy or money. However, it will definitely get recognition among the group members. 3 short listed profiles will be voted by the members on www.linkedpune.com and one will be elected as “The Entrepreneur - LinkedPune”.


Every month new category will be polled, e.g. “Investor – LinkedPune”, “Trainer – LinkedPune”, “Freelancer – LinkdPune”, “Social Champion – LinkedPune” and many more as per your feedback.


Why such an initiative?

LinkedPune was started to promote business for all its members. Such initiatives will bring “best-in-class” members to lime light and will hopefully help them in getting more business.
