Dear ENTREP community,
We are delighted to invite you to nominate a family business whose commitment to best practices in both family and business makes it outstanding.
Each year since 1996, a globally leading family business has been honoured with the Global Family Business Award. The award, which is regarded by many as the most prestigious distinction in the world for successful global family businesses, has an impressive list of previous winners that set the standard for future winners:
Lego – Hermès – Puig – Henkel – Zegna – Murugappa – SC Johnson – Bonnier – Barilla – Votorantim – Ivey, Lopez and Lluis Carulla Foundations – Yazaki – Roca – Merck – Firmenich – Bel – JM Huber – Ayala – Bavaria N.V. – Jebsen & Jessen Family Enterprise. |
This year, the 23rd Award Ceremony will take place at the 29th International Family Business Network Global Summit in Venice (Italy) on 10-13 October 2018.
In selecting the award winner, the jury carefully considers each of the nominees for their outstanding success, exemplary governance, the involvement of several generations and a clear, long-term social commitment. For further information about the selection criteria, please take a moment to explore the Award Website.
We sincerely hope you will help us celebrate the important role family businesses play in the global economy by sending us your online nomination by April 25, 2018.
