We have Ye! Award Fever!

We love awards! What’s not to love? The fun, the tension, the great stories you hear... And oh, and those emotional acceptance speeches!

Here at the Ye! office in Amsterdam, (where we are experiencing a rare hot day) we are buzzing with excitement! We have just launched our very first Ye! Global Awards and are already planning the Award Ceremony in Sweden.

This award will be given to an outstanding young entrepreneur with a successful enterprise. And what makes this award ultra special is that the winner can be from anywhere in the world!! This means that we will be hearing some great stories from many countries. We have already received incredible applications from Ye! members and read about some Seriously. Cool. Enterprises.

Our awards fever has been building up for some time already - we already had a big party at UNCTAD where we awarded the Kenya Award to Ifrah Mohammed, and Ye! member Sandra Leito received the award for Best Pitch. Who gave them the award? None other than the UN’s Special Envoy on Youth, Ahmed Alhendawi. Now that’s how you get an award in style!
