The annual gala of the Creative Young Entrepreneur of Luxembourg (CYEL) competition will be taking place at 18:30 on 6 June 2019 at the Chambre de Commerce de Luxembourg (Rue Alcide de Gasperi, Luxembourg-Kirchberg).

After a long and difficult selection among over 30 candidates, three finalists convinced the jury about their entrepreneurial skills and their creative and innovative projects: Yannick Bontincks, Pierre Beck and Catherine Hoffman and Patrick Malget.

The jury chose Yannick Bontincks, CEO of Ziggu, as a finalist for his digital platform offering to real estate professional tools to manage the complexity of construction informing and engaging homebuyers. Next up are Pierre Beck and Catherine Hoffman, who developed and commercialised Fox Beer, a "low carb, low calorie and sugar free" beer made in Luxembourg. Finally, the jury were impressed by the Taxx.lu platform, founded by Patrick Malget. The platform aims to facilitate the income tax returns process.

Pedro Castilho (Verbalius) will be Master of the Ceremony at this year's Gala, now in its 13th year. There will also be a keynote speech by Karin Schintgen, CEO of House of Start Ups.  

The event will be held in English. Dress code: business attire.
