The Les Clefs d’Or Award was first established at the 55th Les Clefs d’Or International Congress in Denmark, in 2008, as the “Andy Pongo Award” to honour the memory Andy Pongo. The award aims to recognise and encourage young members to become active participants in our worldwide society.
The winner of the Swiss Bucherer Young Concierge Award will participate at the Sydney 2026 International congress to represent the Swiss section as an award candidate.
