The lawyer Gonzalo Jiménez-Blanco, the CEO of Vocento, Luis Enríquez, and the manager Kibo Ventures are the recipients of the awards

The Comillas ICADE (ICADE Association) Alumni Association held the tenth edition of its awards at the Universidad Pontificia Comillas ICAI-ICADE, bringing together more than four hundred people to recognize the professional success, the work, the effort and the ethics of the winners through this event.

In this edition, the awards were presented to Gonzalo Jiménez-Blanco, who won the Award for a Consolidated Professional. In spite of not being able to attend, he expressed, through a letter read by his daughter, the importance of values acquired at ICADE such as integrity, cooperation, Perseverance or human quality in the professional field.

Luis Enríquez, currently CEO of Vocento and formerly at “Aurum Producciones” and “Unidad Editorial”, was presented with the Award for a Meteoric Rise in his Profession. Enriquez said that the passage through each of these companies has allowed him to get to know the world of cinema, uncomfortable journalism, that of lineage as well as rigorous journalism, being a sector with numerous challenges.

The Prize for Excellence in a Business Project went to the fund management firm Kibo Venture, of which Aquilino Peña and Javier Torremoch are the founding partners. Both coincided the same academic year at ICADE and highlighted the efforts they have made to make Kibo a large company in a short period of time, with only 9 people on staff.
