Business Expo and Entrepreneur Award 2020: Vote now!
The work of micro-enterprises is to be recognized more publicly: This is the goal of the Entrepreneur Award 2020, which will be presented during an online event at the Business Expo on December 4, 2020.
98% of the total SME companies in the Swiss economy are Ks (with up to 49 employees). Through BUSINESS-EXPO and the Entrepreneur Award, small businesses can better position themselves in the Swiss market and gain more prestige and recognition in the Swiss economy. The event, which will take place on December 4 at Technopark Brugg, will also serve as a platform for cooperation opportunities between small and medium-sized enterprises.
Guaranteed implementation
Despite the current circumstances, BUSINESS-EXPO 2020 will be held with the Entrepreneur Award, online. The concept includes an expo with 60 exhibition spaces, keynote speeches as well as workshops. Starting December 1, all exhibitors will be listed. The workshops will take place online, and tickets are available now. The workshops will focus on practical and current issues facing small businesses, such as crisis management, marketing via social media, investing, online marketing and more. However, an originally scheduled keynote address had to be canceled.
Entrepreneur Award 2020: voting is underway
The highlight is the presentation of the Entrepreneur Award, which was awarded for the first time last year. The pitching and award ceremony for the "Entrepreneur of the Year 2020" award will also take place online. Awards are given to micro and small enterprises in two categories: Sole proprietorships with no employees and small businesses with 2 to 49 employees. Small businesses can register for nomination in these two categories until November 13, where they can collect votes from the community. A top 10 list then emerges for each category. An independent jury will also determine a top 10 list. These two lists will then be combined to create the shortlist with 3 finalists per category. The 3 finalists of the two categories will give a 3-minute pitch in front of the jury at BUSINESS-EXPO. The jury will then vote on the spot and choose the Entrepreneur of the Year 2020.
