During an event held on November 2, 2023, Niklaus LNI SA, a company owned and managed by Ethiopian-born entrepreneur Andenet Ras-Work (Andy), was recognized by the Swiss Venture Club. The award is a testament to Andy’s hard work, dedication, and passion for quality.
Andy is a true believer in pushing the boundaries of excellence, driven by a desire to see his company succeed rather than seeking personal recognition. His commitment to quality has been instrumental in Niklaus LNI SA’s growth and success. Collaborators in the company work hard and with passion in the shadow of the most coveted swiss brands, for the joy of pushing the quality at its peak and not for the desire to shine.
The Swiss Venture Club is a prestigious organization that has been highlighting successful companies for over 20 years. Their motto, “We inspire SMEs'”, reflects their dedication to supporting and empowering small and medium-sized enterprises like Niklaus LNI SA.
Andy’s achievement is a significant milestone, not only for Niklaus LNI SA but also for the Ethiopian community in Switzerland. He is the first Ethiopian-born CEO to be among the top three most successful entrepreneurs in the region.
Congratulations to Andenet Ras-Work, his wife Mehret Kiflezion, and the entire Niklaus SA team for this well-deserved recognition. Ethiopians.ch wishes you continued success in the years to come!
