  • E ACE's "flag-ship event" is a great success
    Updated: Fri 27-08-2010

    On the 19th of August Emerging ACE held its annual Riverboat cruise and BBQ. This event has rapidly become E ACE's "flag-ship event" (pun intended) with over 80 people joining us for the cruise on the Thames from a variety of different businesses from within the industry.

    We set off from Westminster Pier aboard the King Edward, an intimate party boat split over 2 floors. The predicted rain didn't appear so party goers were able to stand out on deck taking in the sights as we headed West, first towards Putney and then, East to Greenwich.

  • New - ACE Regional Press Awards
    Updated: Tue 24-08-2010

    After a gap of several years ACE is to launch two new awards – to be presented at the ACE Press Awards in March 2011 – specifically geared towards the Regional Press;

    • DAILY REGIONAL NEWSPAPER OF THE YEAR
    • WEEKLY REGIONAL NEWSPAPER OF THE YEAR

    ACE recognises that current market conditions – which have affected all sectors and areas of the business are such that the traditional measures of circulation success (the growth and vigour of circulation volumes) may not now always be the best measure of success. Therefore these new awards will measure and reward such qualities as INITIATIVE, CREATIVITY and ENDEAVOUR.

  • The 2010 Poole ACE / Old Ben Fishing Festival
    Updated: Mon 16-08-2010

    The weather was very kind to those that attended the 2010 Poole ACE / Old Ben Fishing Festival.

    12 Boats left the harbour on what was a dry mild Dorset day.

    Thankfully several boats did manage to find fish, others were not so lucky but a good day was had by all that ventured out. The event sponsors “Pulp Friction” were very much in evidence as their staff handed out baseball caps bearing their company name to everyone at the registration point.  On the boats return, cloth branded goodie bags were given out to all containing a pen-stress cube – note pad – pen etc plus an umbrella.

    Thanks to the tremendous support for this event from all the host companies 39 golfing trade friends and colleagues played the greens of the chosen new venue for 2010.

    An enjoyable day was had by all who attended, the comments indicated that there was no real disappointment when comparing the course to Mottram Hall.

    A buffet lunch was provided in the club house on arrival before guests played the first tee.

    If golf was not your game and you chose bowls or cricket, guests were taken to Flixton Sports & Cricket club were they play their chosen sport.

    Again a buffet lunch was provided on arrival before the serious side of the day began.

    ACE membership renewals and the ACE website

    Over the past few weeks most of you will have received requests to renew your ACE membership. Some of you may have indeed received a few too many of these emails, for that I apologise. But please bear with me as I migrate the membership management to a new system that is part of the new ACE website.

    ACE welcomes its newest (and arguably its oldest) member. Sid Sisyphus (seen to the right doing his day job) has joined the ranks of ACE as an honorary member for his long association, not so much with the industry but with the ACE logo.

    Thought to epitomise the long and endless struggle of the circulation executive Sid has adorned the ACE logo (and award trophies) for many years. He has, we are happy to report, agreed to extend his services to that of ACE Blogger.
