How the Winners Are Chosen as Founder of the Year Medium Size Companies

The Founder of the Year award honors successful global founders who have built one or more strong private or public limited companies. It aims to spotlight these founders and inspire growth in medium to large-sized internationally expanding companies.

To honor founders across various stages of company development, the award has three categories: small, medium, and large companies. In the category Founder of the Year Medium Size Companies are active founders of a private or public limited company with a revenue of approximately 10-50 million euro and at least 20% ownership in a profitable company, based on the fiscal year 2022.

The finalists have been assessed by the Founders Alliance Index, which takes into account past performance, future potential, and social benefits, and they have been evaluated by a Founders Jury of experienced founders.

The Founder Jury consisted of Chair of the jury Linda Bjernstål, founder of Tondere, Harshil Karia, founder of Schbang & Level, Lilia Yeghiazaryan, founder of Dexatel and Oliver Lagerström, co-founder of MFEX by Euroclear
