The awards will be remitted in front of +200 guests and journalists during our New Year’s Party at Grand Hyatt Tokyo on Thursday, April 8 2021.
Organized every year by the French Chamber, the French Business Awards honor excellence and promote success and innovation across all industries. The awards also acknowledge the important social contributions made by organizations through their commitment to community, ethical behavior and environmental sustainability. As 2020 has especially been an unexpectedly tough year for everyone, therefore awards will be given to organizations that were able to make it through these difficult times.
You can apply for the following categories (deadline for application: January 11, 2021):
1) The “Company of the Year” award: for companies which have shown excellence and outstanding achievements in all aspects of their organization in 2019 and 2020.
2) The “Product/Service of the Year” award: for companies which developed or have been developing a particularly innovative/successful product or service in Japan in 2019 and/or 2020.
3) The “French Tech Tokyo” award: for any startup focusing on new technologies recently founded, which displays the highest potential of growth, outstanding originality in their project as well as forward-thinking and innovative ideas.
Special prizes will also be awarded to companies which will catch the attention of the jury for the uniqueness of their profiles and/or for their outstanding performances.
