Dedicated to all entrepreneurs
“You can be inspired by someone walking on the street, by an artist or a painting, a flower, a sunset, a conversation,” commented Chammas when receiving his award from Yacoub Sarraf – representing H.E. President of the Council of Ministers Mr. Saad Hariri, “I think life is made of moments. There is no limit to inspiration, as long as you are ready to accept things and look at them in a different way. I truly believe in the value and potential of the little things. So, I dedicate this award to all Lebanese entrepreneurs out there who inspire us all every day!”
