Singapore SME 500 Award Trademark Usage Guidelines

Advisory: Exercise vigilance, Verify source of communications.

We have received reports of third parties contacting businesses and members listed in the Award Winners Registry for commercial purposes, promoting sales packages purported as "Business Awards". Some businesses have also reported receiving unsolicited WhatsApp messages claiming that they have been “selected” for these "Business Awards".

Please note that ATC do not issue award invitations via messaging platforms such as WhatsApp. We strongly advise businesses to exercise caution, verify the sender’s identity, and refrain from sharing personal, business or financial information with unknown parties.

Important Note: ATC only administers the Singapore SME 500 Award and the other segments listed under ATC’s Business Standards. If you are unsure or would like to verify any communication, please contact us at 6304 3145 or email members@atc.sg for assistance.
