No easy task given the almost 200 varied and colorful entries.Dioma AG (Berne), xund am zoo AG (Zurich) and franz&rené AG (Berne) can be pleased about this year's award.Dioma AG convinced the five-member jury with a card that invited handicrafts and participation in a creative competition and was thus awarded in the category the "most beautiful".

xund am zoo sent out the "most appropriate": just in time for the upcoming feasting season, it created the somewhat different Advent calendar, backed with 24 fit and wellness tips.

The "most unusual" came from franz&rené AG, which let its employees relax in hot water as tea bags and wished them peaceful holidays.
