As the year 2021 draws to a close, it's also a good moment to reflect on the accomplishments of some of the world's greatest leaders. The Greatest Brands and Leaders’ Summit, an initiative of URS Media Consulting P.L. and AsiaOne Magazine, is one such gathering that has honoured the achievements of leaders.
Ms. Renu Gupta, Managing Director of Red Velvet Rock Global Commercial Brokers LLC in Dubai, received the Blackswan Award for Women Empowerment in recognition of her outstanding contribution to societal transformation via her cutting-edge business concepts.
The summit, currently in its 15th edition, honoured her for her outstanding achievements in the Asia-Middle East-Africa zone. It served as a platform for great visions, discussions, and solutions about business, economy, social issues, and Asia and Africa's contribution to the world economy's phenomenal growth, as well as a reflection of the global influence, impact, and spirit that these world-class leaders have cultivated. The summit proved to be an unique venue for the creation and exchange of vital and insightful ideas about what is best for Asia, Africa, and the world's future.
Ms. Gupta expresses her gratitude for the honour by saying, “Women empowerment is a subject that is very close to my heart. Luckily, the world is full of self-aware leaders that have good intentions and policies to nurture talent. Despite this, it is saddening to see that progress at grassroots levels is very slow. With my work, I wish to encourage young people to step up and try to make a change. And if I’ve inspired even one person, I think that’s one step closer to our goal”.
United Research Services conducted research for the awards, which were chosen by consumers and the industry. They are, without a doubt, just for those organizations and leaders who are exclusive, exceptional, and empowering; people who have not only pushed to establish their brands internationally, but have also imprinted their region on the globe map and made a significant effect on society. The honours were given to those leaders who have left an indelible impact on the world for future leaders to emulate and generations to admire.
Ambassadors, government delegations, social leaders, and businesses from across the world attended the Summit. Notable celebrities include: Mr. Vardaraj Manjappa Shetty - Chairman & Managing Director of Ramee Group Apartments and Resort, Mr. Ryan Pinto - the CEO of Ryan International Group of Institutions, Mr. Rizwan Sajan - Founder & Chairman of Danube Group, Dr. Bu Abdullah – Chairman of Bu Abdullah Group Of Companies, Mr. Adeeb Ahamed - Managing Director, LuLu Financial Holdings, the Managing Director of NB Ventures - Mr. Neelesh Bhatnagar, Mr. Abdulla Amiruddin Ajmal - the CEO of Ajmal Perfumes, Mr. Surender Singh Kandhari, the philanthropist and Dr. Ram Buxani - the Chairman of ITL Cosmos and others were honoured with AsiaOne Super 50 COVID-19 Commitment Award 2020-21.
