The award programme forms part of the
Southern Africa Chapter of the World Entrepreneur Award and recognises outstanding entrepreneurs for their vision, innovation, courage, and leadership.
The entrepreneurs manage one of the largest advertising agencies in South Africa which they sold to French global marketing and communication leader, Publicis Groupe, in September last year. TCC has been at the forefront of the revolution in the communication industry pioneering the merge between shopper marketing, brand activation, social media and field marketing. The agency is one of the largest first-time employers in South Africa.
“We are humbled by this award which we dedicate to the TCC team which has spearheaded the creative thinking which has spurred the growth and success of this agency,” says Neu-Ner. “This award also celebrates all business leaders in the country who are championing transformation, innovation, and job creation.”
The finalists were selected on entrepreneurial spirit, financial performance, personal integrity and influence, innovation, community and global impact, and strategic direction.
“I believe that many of South Africa’s problems can be solved if we foster more entrepreneurs and give them guidance, mentorship, access to funding to build their ideas into a large scale industrial behemoth,” adds Oved.
