ABOUT FORTY UNDER 40 AWARDS

Celebrating Young Leaders

MESSAGE FROM THE EVENTS DIRECTOR

The Forty under 40 Award is curated to identify, honour and celebrate a cross-section of the nation’s most influential and accomplished young business leaders under the age forty from a wide range of industries. We want to celebrate entrepreneurs and business leaders who are committed to business growth, professional excellence, community service and have risen up the ranks of their companies or industries at a relatively young age.

We believe that putting the spotlight on these young achievers will not only celebrate them – it will also afford them an opportunity to build a stronger platform where they can have even greater opportunities and also open doors for the next generation.

Every year we have seen outstanding individuals and trailblazers who strive and persevere by overcoming challenges and economic instability. These are the people we want to award.

Our Awarding Board is seeking outstanding entrepreneurs, executives, managers, and professionals in the public, private, and non-profit sectors, including recognising the attributes such as achievements in business, experience and innovation, vision, leadership, and community involvement.

Our categories cover a wide range of sectors, from banking, finance, energy, family business, agriculture, theatre and arts, journalism, fashion, law, sports, event management, health, technology, innovation and many more.

PURPOSE

To recognize and celebrate 40 emerging leaders under the age of 40 who demonstrate or impact the world personally or professionally through their exceptional leadership.

  • To identify projects and individual achievements that have enabled young achievers to be set apart from their competitors, produced clear and compelling value, return of investment, and other relevant results.
  • To encourage our up-and-coming youth to excellence and succeed in various industries at a very significant and tender age.
