The international competition is staging for newcomers, PET worldwide aims to offer a platform for young companies with innovative ideas to get themselves known in the pet sector. And the trade magazine appears to have hit the jackpot by introducing this award, because over 30 applications had been submitted by companies across Europe by the time the deadline for entries arrived. The editorial team of PET worldwide then had the tricky task of selecting five nominees from the submissions.
These five will have an opportunity to present themselves and their products/services to a large audience in five-minute live pitches in each case at the International Pet Conference in Brussels. The winner will then be presented with the PET worldwide Best Newcomer Award on the first day of the conference. It will fall to PET worldwide readers, who will vote online, and attendees of the International Pet Conference to decide which company will win the award, with each voting element being taken into account equally in the final decision.
The nominees for the award are: Fiboo (Poland), Just Russel (Belgium), Mammaly (Germany), The Better Cat (Germany) and The Pack (Great Britain). They are featured in alphabetical order below.
