DUBAI, December 1, 2015
The Hinduja Brothers were recently honoured with the prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award at the annual Asian Business Leadership Forum (ABLF) Series, which recognises the most powerful and influential business leaders.
ABLF Royal Patron, Sheikh Nahayan Mabarak Al Nahayan, Minister of Culture, Youth and Community Development, UAE, presented the award to Gopichand P Hinduja, co-chairman, Hinduja Group of Companies, at a glittering ceremony held in Dubai.
Hinduja said: “Every award is a responsibility, and inspires and energizes us to continue ahead,” adding, “success is a journey, not a milestone.”
He commented: “This award is most dear to our hearts. We began our global journey from this part of the world and therefore it would not be wrong to say that roots of our success are enshrined here and they continue to grow stronger here.”
Hinduja also added that the key business values of the late founder of the Hinduja Group, P D Hinduja, namely, ‘Work To Give’, ‘Word is a Bond and Partnership for Growth’, resonate in the business ethics of the region.
Some of Asia’s most influential leaders of proactive private enterprises, policymakers, economists, investors, diplomats, entrepreneurs and global think tanks graced the glittering gathering at the Armani Hotel, Burj Khalifa, where the awards were hosted under Royal Patronage.
The Hinduja Group is one of India’s premier diversified and transnational conglomerates. Employing nearly a 100,000 employees, with presence across 38 countries it has multi-billion dollar revenue.
