MVRDV has been selected for the fourth time in a row - 2017, 2018, 2019 and now 2020 - for a Dutch FD Gazellen Award, organized by Het Financieele Dagblad, the country’s main business newspaper. It is an important trophy for the fastest growing businesses in the Netherlands.

To be considered for the award, companies must have a turnover growth of at least 20% in the previous three years, with the last year ending profitably. Another important consideration is the growth in full-time personnel, which gives an overall image regarding the success of the firm. In 2020, MVRDV's growth in this area puts it for the first time in the category for large companies.

"It's fantastic to be recognized for the fourth year in a row, especially under the current circumstances", says MVRDV managing director Inger Kammeraat. "A lot of credit must go to the enormous resilience and incredible energy of the MVRDV team... combined with the ongoing confidence of our clients, of course!"

The overall winners of the award will be announced in a digital presentation on November 19th. MVRDV is proud to join almost 800 other businesses in the Netherlands being awarded during the 17th edition of the FD Gazellen. Receiving this prestigious recognition, not only once but four years in a row, is a testament to our continuous engagement in making the world a better place with our architecture!
