Engraving tips

Collect names from HR in a spreadsheet and check spelling twice, including Arabic names.
Keep the text short: award title, name, year and company logo.
Use the same layout across all awards so the set looks consistent on stage.
Order one or two spares in case a category changes at the last minute.

Complete the event

Add roll up banners for the stage, event tickets for entry and table covers for the awards table.
