It is a widely recognized fact that talent is genderless and an inclusive environment which nurtures a diverse workforce makes any organization more productive, innovative, agile and more receptible to the internal as well as the external environment. In sync with UN Women, we are dedicated to gender equality and the empowerment of women, while endeavoring towards accelerating progress on meeting their needs worldwide.

AsiaOne’s Women Empowerment Entrepreneur Awards is our attempt to recognize not only the achievements of ambitious women who have left indelible impressions of glory in their respective spheres owing to their determination, perseverance and passion to make it big, but also their efforts in helping economies thrive, spurring their productivity and growth.

In our bid to select the phenomenal and the prodigious, we take into account the extent of their influence, impact, success and contribution towards the improvement of society, economy and the world in general; based on each candidate’s innovative ideas and practices, business acumen, and the spirited contribution towards the welfare of humanity. Our exclusive list of “AsiaOne Women Empowerment Entrepreneur Awardees” comprises entrepreneurs and social leaders from diverse spheres who have elegantly graced the pedestal of success with their wisdom, grandeur and charisma, while we merely mirror their reflection of influence, impact and spirit that these top-notch personalities are creating the world over.

How “AsiaOne Women Empowerment Entrepreneur Awardees” are Chosen?

“AsiaOne Women Empowerment Entrepreneur Awardees” are chosen annually through a passionate research, in which URS-AsiaOne’s Editorial Team and the Research Team scout 16 industries worldwide to select only the most worthy from an unceasing list of contenders. After a wide and in-depth research, we painstakingly create an exclusive list of special winners for our “AsiaOne Women Empowerment Entrepreneur Awardees” IPR. UNITED NATIONS GLOBAL COMPACT and THE WOMEN’S EMPOWERMENT PRINCIPLES logo and text rights are part of the awards to the final winning brands & leaders.

AsiaOne 40 Under 40 Most Influential Young Leaders 2023 is a prestigious annual selection of the most prominent personalities globally. This list is entirely made of those who have made an indelible mark for other leaders to follow and generations to admire!

40 is an age of achievements, maturity and triumphs – both at personal and professional levels. Through our “AsiaOne 40 Under 40 Most Influential Young Leaders” IPR, we do not highlight the wealth of our candidates. That is not the sole factor of success any more. Of course, we calculate the extent of influence, impact, success and contribution towards the improvement of society and the world in general; however, it is based on each candidate’s innovative ideas & practices, business acumen, and the spirited contribution – regardless of age – towards the good of other human beings rather than the accumulation of wealth, which is pro tem.

Though our list is “AsiaOne 40 Under 40 Most Influential Young Leaders”, you’ll notice several relatively young turks making the mark, as the benchmark of personal and financial success has drastically changed over time. Our list is a reflection of influence, impact and spirit that these top-tier personalities have created worldwide.

India, our motherland, is known for its greatness since ancient times! It has produced innumerable noble leaders who have invariably toiled to bring it glory and development! Driven by exceptional leaders and their phenomenal vision, our country continues to achieve spectacular success in diverse spheres of economy, politics, society and culture. Since the independence of our country, exceptional leaders have continued to generate incredible ideas to further our growth and create a special place for India in the world.

We are the largest democratic nation and the fastest-growing major economy in the world. We are expected to become one of the top three economic powers of the world over the next 10-15 years. We are already the world’s seventh-largest economy by nominal GDP and the third-largest economy by purchasing power parity (PPP). As one of the most promising economies in the world, we are also the third most attractive destination for investments in the world.

Sure enough, India is going to drive the world economic engine in the future. Led by leaders of great vision, our burgeoning youth is the world’s future. They hold the promise of a dynamic and prosperous India through their youthful entrepreneurship. In their journey and cause, they will be led by the same extraordinary torchbearers whose constant endeavours have brought India to a position of zenith today.
