Best of European Business

Best of European Business (BEB) is an annual competition by Roland Berger Strategy Consultants and has been established in 2005.[1]

Idea

[edit]

The idea of Best of European Business is to award European op-companies and –managers for outstanding economical performances. European entrepreneurs as role models are awarded in the categories growth, creation of value, innovation and strategy. Every year the BEB focusses on a certain topic. In 2011 German companies have been awarded with focus on the markets of ASEAN-countries. This ceremony does not only award the European companies and managers, but also call attention on the strengths of the European economy.

Initiator and jury

[edit]

Initiator of BEB is Burkhard Schwenker, Chairman of Roland Berger Strategy Consultants. The Best of European Business-Award is taking place in numerous European countries by managers of successful companies. Among the judges are Jürgen Großmann (RWE), Jean-Cryil Spinetta (Air France) or Daniel Vasella (Novartis). Numerous national and international partners of media and science are supporting Best of European Business.[2]
