Leaders Presents has received more than 150 nominations from across the region in over 10 categories, for the 2nd Annual Middle East Business Achievement Awards (MEBA).

The organisation said the nominations for the awards, which run in partnership with Dubai Holding,  have ended.

A shortlist of candidates will be announced on November 1, on the MEBA website.

Winners will be announced at a Gala Dinner on November 16, in Dubai, said a statement.

“The massive response to the MEBA awards function is a strong endorsement of the record number of achievements of regional businesses,” said Alan Kelly, divisional director, Leaders Presents.

“We have received some really good submissions and it won’t be an easy task to narrow them down to 10 categories, but we are sure that the Awards judges will do a great job,” he added.

The event, which aims to recognise and reward outstanding success, innovation and ethics across the Middle East business spectrum, will offer participants a prestigious platform in which to network with over 800 regional industry leaders and government officials, as well as high-profile, keynote speakers from the Leaders in Dubai Business Forum, who will also present the awards that evening.-TradeArabia News Service
