The winner will be chosen by an independent panel of representatives of the Conselleria d’Economia i Hisenda i d’Empresa i Coneixement, Foment del Treball, Barcelona Activa, ACC1Ó, ESADE and IESE as well as personalities from the world of business and communication.

Former finalists of this award include the founders of companies such as Casa Ametller, Wallapop, Glovo, Cornerjob, Munich or Softonic.
