The talented Mr Krymski

Following my wizardly business partner’s recent nomination in Business Week for Young Entrepreneur of the Year 2007 (apparently one or two grey hairs preclude nomination), the grinning Mr Krymski last week found himself nominated for Best New Idea at Esquire’s annual Man at the Top Awards. He was in rather prestigious company: the other three nominees being Mark Price (Waitrose), Philip Green (Fashion Academy) and Simon Woodroffe (Yotel).

Hearty congratulations to Simon, who ended up winning. Also, particularly cheery congratulations to Charlie Osmond (FreshMinds), an old friend from Oxford, who won Esquire’s award for Young Entrepreneur of the Year.
