Joya at the E&Y Entrepreneur of the Year Award

Joya at the E&Y Entrepreneur of the Year Award

Wow! What an honor: Joya founders Karl Müller and Claudio Minder are among the finalists of this year’s Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award of Switzerland!

 

You may be wondering what kind of award this is?

In a nutshell: it’s the world’s largest and most prestigious price for entrepreneurial work. Of course, we at Joya are thrilled and look forward to the upcoming award ceremony with excitement and anticipation!

 

But what does it take to become Entrepreneur of the Year?

It’s all in the mix: as an entrepreneur you need entrepreneurial spirit, innovative strength, a willingness to take risks and an optimistic mindset, to realize your visions.

For years, Karl and Claudio have been driving their vision, enabling people to move painlessly with passion – now they have made it into the top 3 entrepreneurs in the Service & Trade category.

On Friday, October 29th 2021, the award gala will take place and the winners will be chosen. No matter how it turns out – we are proud to be part of the Joya team and motivated to further advance Joya’s vision together.
