Each year, the International Partnering Institute recognizes projects and individuals who best exemplify the principals of partnering and promote our mission – to create a culture of partnership. The purpose of the awards is to celebrate success, share lessons learned and best practices, and to acknowledge the collaborative efforts of teams and individuals who achieve extraordinary results. On May 17th, 2012 four VCG Facilitated Project Team’s were awarded IPI Excellence Awards. The ceremony took place at the Air Museum at the International Terminal of San Francisco International Airport.
