Churchill Institute of Higher Education, an academic institution based in Parramatta, Australia, received two awards at the 2nd GLOBE Summit: Global Leadership in Hospitality and Tourism Management, held in Phuket, Thailand, from June 21 to 23.

The institute won the ‘Best Conference Paper’ award for a research paper by Siddharth Jain, Syed Mahmood Ahmad, and Richard Robinson. It also received the ‘Best Presentation’ award for a presentation by Thomas Denigan, co-authored with Jain and Ahmad.
