The goal of these awards is to recognize, one more year, the most innovative business initiatives and with the highest growth and development potential in each province. Then, the best Andalusian company 2019 will be chosen from among the provincial winners in the regional phase of the competition.

 

This year, the awarded Malaga companies have been ‘Kaiju Entertainment’, dedicated to the organization of events related to the audiovisual industry, multimedia, training and videogame development; and ‘Gana Arquitectura’, an architecture and engineering office that develops singular and unique projects to meet the most basic needs of the society. The first one has been awarded in the category ‘Creation’, for recently established business initiatives (up to three years ago); and the second one in the category ‘Consolidation’, aimed at businesses between three and seven years of history.

 

As prize, the promoters of both companies have received a technology gadget, sponsored by Programa Minerva, promoted by Junta de Andalucía and Vodafone, and they will also participate as finalists in the regional phase of the competition.
