Green Business Switzerland joins forces with Ringier Media Switzerland and Impact Gstaad

The Green Business Award recognizes entrepreneurial solutions that combine ecological impact with economic success. With two new partnerships with Ringier Media Switzerland and Impact Gstaad, the sustainability award is now to be further strengthened.

With its Green Circle platform, Ringier Media Switzerland is putting sustainable companies in the national spotlight. The finalists of the Green Business Award are given the opportunity to present themselves and their solutions at the Impact Circle event organized by the Impact Gstaad association. Under the motto "From little Gstaad to the big world", the Impact Gstaad initiative connects sustainability visionaries with potential investors at its events.

This is the jury

The selection process for the sixth Green Business Award remains multi-stage and unique in order to find the best Swiss solutions every year. In the first phase of the selection process, around 20 national scouts from business and environmental protection nominate the best solutions in their sector for the award. From these, an interdisciplinary jury of experts awards the Green Business Excellence label to the five best solutions. These five companies present themselves with a pitch to the main jury chaired by former Federal Councillor Doris Leuthard. This jury includes 14 other well-known personalities, including Reto Knutti (ETH professor of climate physics), Betrand Piccard (Solar Impulse), Roberto Cirillo (CEO of Swiss Post) and business journalist and entrepreneur Patrizia Laeri. Three of these five companies will be selected as finalists for the Green Business Award, one of which will receive the coveted award at the Impact Circle of Impact Gstaad on February 14, 2025.
