“I would like to thank the Forbes magazine for this award, which is extremely valuable, not only for me. It is a recognition for Vivacom’s employees – a fantastic team of people with great professional qualities and a team spirit, which has helped us achieve amazing results within such short time, facing multiple challenges, changes, and unexpected opportunities. I am sincerely grateful to everyone who has supported me in this race,” Nikolai Andreev commented.
The prestigious recognition for Vivacom’s CEO comes nearly three years after the telecom joined the family of United Group, Southeast Europe’s leading telecom and media services provider. Over this period, Vivacom has built the first 5G commercial network in all regional cities across Bulgaria and the first 10GIGA optical network in Bulgaria. The company also pioneered the first unlimited plans in the country in all price categories – from the lowest to the highest ones, giving all of its customers the complete freedom to communicate.
The special Forbes CEO of the Year award is based on an official survey among 100 established business individuals in the country, a selection made by the editorial office of the Forbes magazine, and a final vote. The companies and leaders are given a chance to share their success stories with the public, while the award winners gain recognition for their good job and a motivation boost to conquer new career heights.
