Nominees for Forty Under 40 Awards announced

The fifth edition of the Forty Under 40 Awards will recognise outstanding individuals and trailblazers who strive hard with dedication and perseverance by overcoming challenges and economic instability.

The Forty Under 40 Awards is an initiative of Xodus Communications Limited which seeks to identify, honour and celebrate a cross-section of the nation's most influential and accomplished young business leaders under the age of forty.

These leaders are from a wide range of industries, who are committed to business growth, professional excellence and community service and have risen through the ranks of their companies or industries at a relatively young age.

The Awards scheme puts the spotlight on these young achievers not only to celebrate them but also build a strong platform for them by giving a voice and opportunities to the next generation of industry pacesetters, whiles building a positive attitude in our youth to strive for excellence at a tender age.

Speaking at the just-ended Business Forum and Nominees Announcement in Accra, Executive Director of Xodus Communications, Richard Abbey Junior said, the 2021 edition received 308 entries from various industries across the country.

"Individuals were disqualified based on eligibility, thus they were not Chief Executive Officers nor co-founders of their companies. About 82 more applicants did not meet the first selection criteria. To be shortlisted, an applicant is required to have some significant achievements," he said.

The 5th edition of the Awards which is slated for October 8, 2021, at Kempinski Gold Coast Hotel is in partnership with the Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture. It is under the supervision of an Awarding Board with eminent members of the society comprising; Prof. Atta Peters, Dr Ken Kwaku, Prof. Essilfie Conduah, Dr Ato Conduah and Dr Paul Fynn.

The Award categories cover a wide range of sectors - banking and finance, energy, family business, agriculture, theatre and arts, journalism, fashion, law, sports, event management, health, technology and innovation amongst others.
