Award by German Government and German Industry Association

Zurich, Switzerland - June 1, 2006: Adecco's Chief Financial Officer, Dominik de Daniel (30), was selected to represent one of the "100 minds of tomorrow" of Germany. At a ceremony in Berlin under the patronage of German President Horst Köhler 100 young Germans were honored to represent the top "100 minds" that have outstanding potential to shape the future of the country.  

Those "100 minds" that are all below 40 years of age cover all walks of life - from architecture to culture, from industry to science. 36 women and 64 men have been chosen by 22 jurors made up of renowned personalities from all parts of society.

The selection and honoring of the top "100 minds of tomorrow" is part of the "Land of Ideas"  initiative of the German Federal Government and the German Industry Association aimed to promote a modern image of Germany, mainly during the Football World Championship. An exhibition showing life-sized photographs of the "100 minds of tomorrow" and their CVs opened this week at the German Historical Museum in Berlin and can be seen until October.
