Founder / CEO

Ernst & Young named Tom Hanan, our Founder and Managing Director, EY Entrepreneur Of The Year™ 2017 in the Retail/Service category in Switzerland.

What an honor! Last night, I was named EY Entrepreneur of the Year in Interlaken. Obviously, I am over the moon about this award, especially since it represents so much more than just my personal success – it speaks to the outstanding performance and commitment demonstrated by every single Webrepublican and the one-of-a-kind team spirit that we’ve maintained since day one.

This ecosystem would not exist without our customers, who know they can depend on us to help them achieve their ambitious goals. That’s why I'd like to use this opportunity to say thank you.

Of course, I’d like to thank my family and friends who have supported me, encouraged me and challenged me throughout the years – and speaking of challenges, a special thanks goes to our competitors, whose innovations and creative ideas guarantee that we stay on our toes whenever we aren’t seated at an awards ceremony.

With this in mind, I say: to infinity and beyond!
