The award was presented at the virtual ceremony which took place on 30 September.

Widely regarded as the industry’s premiere awards program, the Digital Accountancy Awards celebrate excellence in the accounting profession.

For HLB, the ‘Network of the Year’ award is in recognition of a milestone year. To be considered for this award, nominees had to demonstrate the execution of profitable growth strategies, be recognised by the industry as a reputable brand and have excelled in a number of key strategic and operational areas. In 2019 HLB saw the network celebrate its 50th anniversary, achieve a 7% increase in revenue, taking global combined turnover to $ 2.93 billion. “In fact, we reached our 2020 performance objectives we had set for ourselves a year early, which led us to develop and launch our new holistic growth strategy, shaping our shared future,” the Company said.
Commenting on the win, HLB Global Chairman Corney Versteden said: “I am immensely proud that HLB has been recognised as ‘Network of the Year’. 2019 was a monumental year for us and we looked forward to building on the fantastic achievements we had made. But we all know that 2020 has been an unprecedented year for everyone and I’ve been humbled to see how our network has come together to support not only each other but our clients during these extraordinary times. This award is truly a reflection of all the hard work and dedication of our people from all over the world and it shows the strength of our tagline ‘Together we make it happen’.”
