IMD together with Lombard Odier Darier Hentsch has developed the highly acclaimed and prestigeous Distinguished Family Business Award - initiated in 1996- to recognize annually an outstanding company which has successfully blended family and business interests.

This year, they have conferred the 10th annual IMD-Lombard Odier Darier Hentsch Distinguished Family Business Award on three family foundations in recognition for their philanthropic endeavours:

The Fundaciò Lluis Carulla in Spain
The Ivey Foundation in Canada
The Lopez Group in the Philippines

In 1999, the Scheufele Family, from Chopard, joined and contributes the beautifully crafted trophy.
