International Business Film Festival: Successful Swiss contributions
The films by Sonova, Swiss Post, Helbling, Akademie St. Gallen and Zurich Tourism win the Prix Victoria in Gold at the International Business Film Festival in Vienna.
The Sonova film "Life without restrictions" was awarded gold in the health film category at the International Business Film Festival, the largest competition for business films from German-speaking countries.
Based on the story of young footballer Simon Ollert, the film is an example of how Sonova enables people to live a life without limitations. The jury was impressed by the emotional portrait of Simon Ollert shown in the film and Sonova's successful storytelling concept. Simon Ollert explains: "The film shows my story and what you can achieve despite hearing loss. The hearing aids from Sonova's Phonak brand supported me in my ambitions. Working together on the production of the film has given me a very close bond with Sonova. That's why we want to try to expand our collaboration further."
