The Bronze and Marble Trophy is the work of the Spanish metalsmith and sculptor, Martin Perillan and the SPES High-Tech made its image rotate for the Cybernauts to be able to admire its elegance.

SPES was honoured that the Selection Committee of the 12th INTERNATIONAL EUROPE AWARD FOR QUALITY, yearly granted by the "editorial office" Madrid publishing house and the TRADE LEADERS' CLUB, found SPES worthy of receiving this prize in its 1998 presentation. Apparently their decision was based on information provided by the 14,000 entrepreneurs members of the TRADE LEADERS' CLUB, coming from 112 different countries. The prize giving ceremony of the 12th INTERNATIONAL EUROPE AWARD FOR QUALITY took place in Paris, on November 30th, during a lunch held at the Méridien Etoile Hotel, and presided over by French commercial authorities, as well as diplomatic corps and representatives of the economic and cultural sectors of the country. The Mauritian Ambassador in Paris, H.E. Marie France-Roussety, participated at this prestigious Trophy presentation. From left to right: Mr. Pardo Rodriguez, Mrs. Helena Langlois, H.E.
