About Event
Leadership often goes unrecognized, leaving deserving individuals without the appreciation and acknowledgment they deserve for their extraordinary achievements. Imagine a world where leaders are not celebrated, where their hard work and dedication go unnoticed. This lack of recognition can demotivate even the most passionate individuals and hinder progress in various industries. Impact Events FZCO aims to change that.
Impact Leadership Global Awards 2025 are organized to connect, endorse and recognize global leaders in various sectors who have out-performed in 2023 and before, and have a winning history of excellence. This prestigious event is designed to endorse and recognize industry leaders, business icons, social influencers, humanitarians, philanthropists, executives, and CEOs who have made remarkable contributions to their respective fields. By bringing great minds together, this ceremonial event sets new expectations for a brighter future.
We believe that leaders inspire more leaders. That’s why creative arts leaders, authors, thinkers, and industry experts from different fields are also nominated to win in 150+ award categories. The award ceremony welcomes inspiring personalities, business leaders, and innovators from all sectors including but not limited to energy, technology, agriculture, health, communications, media, art, music, management, sustainability, fashion, entrepreneurship, coaching, mentorship, economic empowerment, mobility, human rights, and many more. These awards celebrate the inspiration existing leaders are passing on to the aspiring leaders.
