The European Business Awards is an independent Awards program which recognizes and rewards excellence, best practice and innovation in companies across the European Union. The Awards highlight and promote examples of individuals and organizations that achieve outstanding results across their fields which set them apart as leaders in Europe. The category RSM Entrepreneur of the Year awards the efforts of those visionary entrepreneurs who have contributed to the success of their business through strategic actions of growth and expansion. Understanding objectives, formulating ideas and making decisions are part and parcel of their role. This award recognises those special traits that make successful entrepreneurs so inspiring.

The result of the awards is a yearlong decision-making process which began with over 15.000 businesses and ended with just 100 Ruban d’Honneur finalists. The 100 most dynamic companies from 28 countries across Europe have been chosen as Ruban d’Honneur recipients for their business accomplishments as well as their dynamism, focus and ethical standards. LAMDA Hellix, a business leader in the Data Center industry, after a competitive year of continuous trials, has managed to become a National Champion and represent Greece at the final round of the competition where it has successfully been selected as one of only ten category winners.

Apostolos Kakkos, Chairman and CEO of LAMDA Hellix, commented: “It’s a great honor for me and LAMDA Hellix to be one of the Ruban d’ Honneur recipients. The RSM Entrepreneur of the Year 2012/13 is the second award we receive, which praises entrepreneurship, innovation and our ability to generate financial and commercial growth in such volatile economic conditions. The company’s philosophy and efforts to constantly evolve its portfolio and provide holistic support and solutions has been awarded for the second consecutive year proving its well planned strategy.  Our goal is to continue our strategy plan and strengthen our leadership position in the Data Center industry”.
