Think Mahogany Events has won the Best Event Management and Planning Award at the just ended 40 Under Forty Achievers Awards at Kempinski Gold Coast Hotel in Accra.

Interacting with the media after the event, the Chief Executive Officer, Debra-Jane Nelson was grateful to clients and vendors all across the country and beyond for the massive support.

She especially mentioned her committed staff who work tirelessly to make sure they deliver precise planning, flawless coordination, timeless design, and trusted production. 

"It was a tough category I would say!  First of all, I would like to say, thank God for always answering my prayers.  And a very well done to the visionaries of the 40 under Forty Awards scheme. As an Events planner, it’s not easy putting up anything of this sort.  It takes a lot of sacrifices, hard work, and people usually don’t even appreciate it,” she told the media.

The elated event planner who turns 40 in just four months said this award surely is the icing on the cake for her career in her 30s.

She subsequently added, “What an amazing way to head into my 40s.”

The award scheme is an initiative from 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 from a wide range of industries.

The prestigious award is in recognition of her dedication and commitment to building the Events Industry as well as being a highly respected company advocating for best business practices in the Hospital, Entertainment, Tourism, Culture, and Arts sectors.
