Meet our second nominee, Dieter Penninckx, who is the co-founder and CEO of FNG Group since 2003.
When Mr Penninckx, a Civil Engineering graduate of the KULeuven, expressed his intentions to start a fashion company together with his two business partners (Anja Maes and Manu Bracke), this idea was immediately challenged by a bunch of reasons why not to do it. Yet, Mr Penninckx wasn’t taken aback and founded Fred & Ginger together with his partners anyway, creating one of Belgium’s most successful fashion brands.
