The first of two awards banquets for The 2013 American Business Awards will take place on Monday, June 17 at the Fairmont Chicago Millennium Park Hotel. Tickets are still available. This is the first time the ABAs will be held in Chicago, after 10 years in New York. Gold, Silver and Bronze Stevie Award winners for management, overall organizational achievement, PR, marketing, customer service, HR, publications, video, and live events will be presented on Monday.
