A recap of the Brilliant Business Awards 2025
In a sold-out Asta Theater in Beek
The Brilliant Business Awards 2025 ceremony was an evening of inspiration, networking and celebration of outstanding entrepreneurship in the Westelijke Mijnstreek (Western Mining) region.
With a sold-out Asta Theater in Beek as the backdrop, artificial intelligence was a recurring theme throughout the event. A lecture by innovation expert Deborah Nas inspired many entrepreneurs to think further about AI and all its possibilities. Presentations and music by Frans Pollux and Bart Storcken complemented this perfectly. The Robijn (Ruby) award went to The Bow Tie in Sittard, the Parel (pearl) award went to Five Hearts Tattoo in Beek and the Diamant (diamond) award went to Basic Pharma in Geleen.
In the Westelijke Mijnstreek, the business community and the municipalities of Sittard-Geleen, Stein and Beek are working together on Brilliant Business. The Westelijke Mijnstreek is the economic engine block of Limburg. Here, 5 percent of the GDP is jointly earned by concentrating knowledge and activity and a knowledge cluster is formed with international appeal in the areas of chemistry, materials, automotive production and logistics.
