It is with incredible joy and deep gratitude that we announce that we have won the very first Emancipation Award in the category of inclusive and sustainable entrepreneurship from Voem, presented in collaboration with the wonderful Wintercircus Ghent.
It confirms what we stand for every day: that impactful entrepreneurship, with inclusion and sustainability at its core, is not only good for society, but also for people and the organisation. This award is a huge motivator to continue on our path as changemakers.
Thank you to everyone who supports us and believes in entrepreneurship that looks beyond the short term and is not driven by profit.
