marcapo has been honored as one of “Bavaria’s Best 50” award winners for 2024

The two marcapo managing directors, Thomas Ötinger and Marc-Stephan Vogt, accepted the award at the awards ceremony held at Schleißheim Palace.
Their dedication and leadership have contributed significantly to our success, and it was a moving moment when they accepted the award.
Significance of the Award
The “Bayerns Best 50” award is presented annually by the Bavarian State Ministry of Economic Affairs, Regional Development, and Energy and recognizes the fastest-growing small and medium-sized enterprises in Bavaria. This award honors companies that have experienced particularly strong growth in recent years and have achieved a significant increase in revenue and headcount.
The winners are selected by the independent auditing firm Baker Tilly GmbH & Co. KG based on objective and transparent criteria:
- Above-average growth: Both revenue and headcount must have increased significantly in recent years.
- Innovative Strength: Companies that have impressed the market with innovative products or services and have thereby been able to expand their market share.
- Sustainability: Companies that stand out for their responsible conduct and sustainable business practices.
The selection process consists of several steps. First, eligible companies are identified and invited to participate in the application process. The final selection and evaluation of the applications is carried out by the auditing firm Baker Tilly GmbH & Co. KG.
This process ensures that only the best and highest-performing companies are recognized.
The Importance of Small and Medium-Sized Businesses and the Award Ceremony
Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) form the backbone of the German economy. They stand for innovation, flexibility, and sustainability. SMEs create jobs, contribute to regional development, and are often closely tied to their locations and local communities. Awards such as “Bavaria’s Best 50” recognize and honor these achievements. They not only provide companies with a platform to celebrate their successes but also offer them the opportunity to expand their networks and exchange ideas.
In addition to recognizing the fastest-growing companies, the awards ceremony also honors special categories. For example, there is the “Bavarian Female Entrepreneur of the Year” award, which recognizes the outstanding achievements of women in leadership positions. Another special award was introduced this year to recognize sustainable business practices: the ESG Award (Environmental, Social, Governance). This award underscores the importance of sustainability and responsible entrepreneurship in the modern business world.
