The category “CEO of the Year” was included in the competition this year for the first time.

The jury recognized Ivaylo Slavov for his strategic and visionary leadership practices that have made BULPROS one of the fastest-growing technology companies in CEE for the past 10 years. He was also praised for his commitment to promote Bulgaria as an attractive technology investment destination through various platforms and initiatives. With this goal in mind, Ivaylo became a Founding Member of the Business Council of Growing Europe in 2020, which pursues the vision of stable growth in the region. Furthermore, as a member of the Board of Directors of the Association for Innovation, Business Excellence, Services and Technology (AIBEST) and the American Chamber of Commerce in Bulgaria (AmCham), Ivaylo is directly involved in shaping the future of the IT industry.

“In recent years we have worked hard to make Bulgaria a better place to live and many people have put their passion into it day and night. It's great to fight for it and I'm happy to say that we have a lot of success that we can be proud of. Not only in our industry but in others as well”, Ivaylo shared.

The title “Outsourcing Company of the Year” is awarded for excellence, innovation and positive impact on the industry. Denitza Mihova, Group Marketing Manager, who accepted the prize, commented on its significance: “This award is very special for us because it was the outsourcing business that brought us together as a team and laid the foundations of our company. In addition to this service, we are successfully developing our own products and solutions, but outsourcing still remains an important part of our DNA. More and more large international companies are interested in Bulgaria precisely because of the successful practices in this sector. We will do everything possible for this business to grow and contribute to the improvement of the business climate in Bulgaria.“
