The foundation also organizes the two-day Young Captains program in collaboration with the Award partners. Candidates are prepared for the next steps in their careers.

The award has been awarded since 2005 to the most talented young business leader that...

  • was struck by daring, decisiveness and originality in an early phase of his/her career

The decision was made in the presence of 120 directors and managers from the business community and the government.
