Managing Director of the Switzerland Convention & Incentive Bureau (SCIB) for over a decade, Barbra was a hugely popular winner receiving a total of 5 distinct nominations for her ‘‘uncompromised customer support when it comes to promoting Switzerland‘‘. Bringing a ‘‘brand new identity to SCIB‘‘ and being ‘‘passionate for Switzerland‘‘ were factors also cited as being deserving of the Huggability Award as was Barbra‘s friendly positive attitude and the fact that she is a ‘‘truly huggable person‘‘.

Passing on the huggability crown to Barbra, 2009 winner Rob Davidson reflected on his time as inaugural recipient of the huggabililty award ‘’What a year I’ve enjoyed as Mr. Huggability, I couldn’t have asked for a better companion than Ovation Bear. With all the meeting industry events I’ve taken him to, he now has more business contacts than myself, Delaney and Gilligan combined. I’m definitely going to miss being the bearer of this wonderful accolade and all those people lining up to hug me’’.
