'The driver of my latest neuronal connections is musical creativity. My involvement with music, playing the piano, the guitar, the ukelele, singing songs – all these things help the search for amazingly new and profitable paths both in life and in business',- commented Igor Rybakov to the Bloomberg News Agency at the launch of his first audio album, adding that his passion has led to the creation of the Rybakov Music Project and the recording of his first album The Summer was Ebbing Away, a sensitive and lyrical production in Pop/Trip-hop style, in which each individual listener will recognise his or her own summer moods ranging from rainy, cool and sad to sunny and life-affirming.
The Summer was Ebbing Away Over is the story of the momentous relationship of two people in love, whose children 'are the main links in the chain of love'.

The aim of the prize is to bring to everybody's attention the names of entrepreneurs, sponsors and philanthropists who serve as role models.
