Bonum national winner of European Business Awards 2018

Bonum won the prestigious "Business of The Year" award and will represent Norway in the grand European final in Warsaw on 23 May this year.

Bonum was first named as one of 89 "ones to watch" companies in Norway earlier this year and has now taken the victory as national winner in the "Business of the Year €26-150M" category. The award goes to outstanding companies that can demonstrate exceptional financial results, strong growth and good strategies for innovation. The judges look for examples of ingenuity and balanced planning that deliver consistent results in dynamic markets.

The judging panel consists of organisational leaders, politicians and academics from across Europe. The competition is now entering its 11th year and aims to highlight European companies that excel in different areas. The goal is to create a stronger business community in Europe and build European business networks. More than 33,000 companies from 34 nations participated in 2017.

"It means a great deal to Bonum to win and we are very proud to be Norway's representative this year. We have worked hard to achieve the strong growth we have had and we look forward to showcasing what we have accomplished in Warsaw in May," says Ruben Wilhelmsen, marketing director and partner at Bonum.

"We see great value in highlighting and rewarding Norwegian companies that stand out in various areas. Many skilled Norwegian companies are often overshadowed by others, and EBA is therefore a wonderful opportunity for them to receive the attention they deserve. In addition, the EBA event is also a fine place to meet other skilled companies and share experiences," says Hans Ragnar Berg, managing partner at RSM Norge.
