22 November 2024
HoSt Group is winner of the Oryx Prize 2024 and we are proud to take second place in the FD Gazellen (Gazelles) National Awards in our category. A proud moment for the organization and a celebration of our strong growth. A special mention to the jury, who praised our international outlook, social responsibility, impressive growth, commitment to sustainability, and pioneering efforts in building renewable energy systems — a journey we began back in the early '90s, well before sustainability and the energy transition was a global priority.

Oryx Prize

The Oryx Prize is the grand and main prize of the ‘FD Gazellen’, awarding us the title ‘the greatest company‘ as it is awarded to the company that is most inspiring to the jury and for other enterprises. This year, the jury for the first time awarded the Oryx Prize to two companies during one ceremony of which one to the HoSt Group and the other to Delft Imaging Systems, builder of transportable medical systems. The jury praised both family businesses for their international outlook and social commitment.
