The WTT YOUNG LEADER AWARD – the OST’s very own “Oscars”
Each year at the WTT YOUNG LEADER AWARD, the best real-life student consulting project teams are presented to an audience of around 650 people at Tonhalle St.Gallen and recognised for their achievements. Thus, the WTT YOUNG LEADER AWARD also serves to showcase the FHS St.Gallen’s unique real-life student consulting project philosophy.
Objectives

We celebrate with all of the students, coaches and clients from the real-life student consulting projects in the company of representatives from the worlds of business, politics and science. - Demonstrating the level of performance
We present the nominated projects and discuss them with the participating students, project coaches and clients, which showcases the high level of performance of our FHS students on the real-life student consulting projects. - Inspiration
Each year, we take an inspiring, topical theme, which is covered in more detail in the ceremonial speech as well as in talks with top managers during the awards ceremony. - Networking
