European CEO Award 2016 winners have shaped the continent and its future

LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM--(Marketwired - Dec. 9, 2016) - Leadership starts at the top, and in business this is all the more true. From the smallest start-up to the biggest multinational, the people in charge have a profound effect on not just the operations of a business, but its culture, philosophy and capacity to change the world. In this era of uncertainty, Europe is looking towards its business leaders to set an example for the rest of the world.

Released with the latest issue of European CEO, the European CEO Awards 2016 has sought to bring together the standout individuals who embody the true values of leadership. Together with the input of readers, European CEO's panel of judges has assembled a collection of CEOs from a broad range of industries including robotics, asset management and energy storage.

From disruptors of the status quo like Spotify's Daniel Ek, to giants of industry like Unilever's Paul Polman, this year's award winners have come from many different walks of life. Looking beyond the better known names, leaders like Lars-Erik Eriksson from Clinical Laserthermia Systems and Laura Rednak from Plastika Skaza have also been recognized for their outstanding innovations and leadership.

As well as the winners of this year's European CEO Awards, the latest issue of European CEO includes special reports on the future of tax in Europe, Davos 2017 and what the next stage of China's economic boom means for Europe.
