The Oscars of the bookkeeping world, the annual Luca Awards recognise outstanding achievement in the profession.

With guests drawn from the profession, government and business, the annual Luca Awards are an unmissable opportunity to gain recognition for your achievements.

Each winner is presented with a Luca Award by HRH Prince Michael of Kent. The Luca Awards are exclusive bronze statuettes of Luca Pacioli, the Cistercian monk who is credited with inventing the process of double entry bookkeeping that endures today. Luca Pacioli's 1494 book, Summa de Arithmetica, Geometria, Proportioni et ProportionalitГ  contains the first written record of the process and warns of the need for good record keeping;

"If you are in business and do not know all about it, your money will go like flies, that is, you will lose it." Luca Pacioli
