On May 25, 2018 iF Magazine was seen on the scene
at the Houston International Trade Development
Council’s (HITDC) 5th Annual Global Seven (G7)
Awards presentation held at the Ballroom at Bayou
Place. The event was a tremendous success! Boasting
an audience of nearly 350 guests who were all there
to celebrate the G7 Awards honorees for 2018. The
live and silent auctions were the highlights of the
event. Nearly all of the events guests participated in
the auction whose main purpose was to raise funds

courage and commitment from the honorees that are
