The Victorian Governor Awards are part of the Australian
Export Awards (AEA). The 2005 Australian Export Awards recognise Australian
businesses for their export achievements. The AEA are organised by the
Australian Trade Commission (Austrade) and the Australian Chamber of Commerce
and Industry (ACCI) and supported by some of Australia's leading business and
export facilitators.
The Australian Export Awards cannot be entered. Only the
winners of each state or territory's export awards are eligible for entry. In
Victoria, winners of the Governor of Victoria Export Awards are automatically
selected as national finalists.
