Founded in 1989 and headquartered in Lausanne, Switzerland, the Family Business Network (FBN) is a federation of family businesses, with member associations in 65 countries. The FBN NxG Awards recognise next-generation family business members who have launched entrepreneurial or intrapreneurial projects. The Intrapreneurship category covers leaders who create new ventures within established family enterprises.

“Family businesses have a unique opportunity to combine the strength of their legacy with the ambition of the next generation. For us, intrapreneurship means thinking differently, building new capabilities and creating opportunities for the future. Being named among the Top 3 global finalists is a recognition of the EKKI team, our partners at HOMA, and my family’s trust in new ideas. Our ambition is to make EKKI one of the world’s most respected family businesses,” said Kanishka Arumugam, Co-CEO, EKKI Group.
