Immer wieder wurde die Oskar-Patzelt-Stiftung nach offiziellen englischsprachigen Statements gefragt. Im folgenden ein Textangebot:
For more than twenty years the nationwide active and solely honorary organized Oskar-Patzelt-Stiftung (Oskar-Patzelt-Foundation) based in Leipzig/Germany attends to the appraisal of extraordinary accomplishments of small- and medium-sized companies and each autumn awards the "Großen Preis des Mittelstandes" (Grand Prix Mittelstand).
More than 4,500 enterprises was nominated for this competition every year. Nominating took place via the city load-separates or other institutions, enterprises and citizens. In the link nominated enterprises with the written answer of a whole catalog of questions of the jury had to place itself. Only 800 enterprises achieved last year the 2. Level of the competition. 12 regionally organized juries with more than 100 jurors are deciding, which enterprises are to be honoured in this year as finalist or winners. Finalists and winners are awarded at grand gala in several cities each autumn.
Such criteria distinguishes the profile of a responsible and competitive company.
The importance for a company of this nomination was defined as follows from the President of the Bavarian Parliament, Barbara Stamm: “Anyone who has been nominated here, has already experienced only through this selection an award the first order”.
Such an honour becomes possible only, if one constantly strives for it, to offer to the customer a particularly good performance.
The first award ceremony organized by Oskar-Patzelt Foundation took place in 1995. The “Grand Prix of Small and Medium Business” is according to a study by the isw Halle / S. done in autumn 2010, the most important German prize in the economic sector.
