On March 11, 2026, the German-British Freundship Award was presented – an award that honors individuals who have made outstanding contributions to strengthening relations between Germany and the United Kingdom.
The award is presented by the British Chamber of Commerce in Germany (BCCG) in cooperation with the British Embassy in Berlin. This year, Nico Rosberg was recognized for his international engagement and his forward-looking focus on innovation.
The evening brought together numerous guests from business, politics and society. The program was hosted by TV presenter Mareile Höppner. Musical accompaniment was provided by the internationally renowned ensemble Salut Salon, complemented by a live performance from The BossHoss. The event was supported by Mercedes-Benz.
We provided the setting for a festive gala dinner and an evening defined by exchange, encounter and a strong focus on German-British collaboration.
With precisely coordinated processes, attentive service and a consistent event flow, our team supported the event from reception through to the closing moments. The aim was to create an atmosphere that balanced the formal character of the award ceremony with opportunities for personal exchange.
The German-British Freundship Award 2026 once again highlights the importance of platforms for international dialogue and collaboration – and the role events can play in fostering them.
