"After four years of hard work, this award feels like a well-deserved reward for the entire BOTS team. Growing a company quickly and successfully always comes with ups and downs. I am therefore very proud of what we have all achieved and that the jury of YBA sees it the same way. We are on track to reach a unicorn status and with the investment money we can further develop our platform to get closer to our ultimate goal of giving everyone worldwide the chance to have a second income," said Michiel Stokman, CEO at BOTS.
An exciting finale
Stokman won the award after a very exciting final, shown at both RTLZ and Videoland. In the end, he was best able to convince the jury with his answers, including explaining why the whole world is ready to start or continue trading. "One of the reasons why our elderly are doing well financially is because they invested that money through pension funds. That has created prosperity. I want to roll out this story around the world," Stokman concludes.
