Awards for top Indian leaders in Arab world

About 100 Indian business leaders have been honoured by Forbes here for their outstanding work that made a mark on the Middle Eastern economies this year.
Each of the awardees finds a place in Forbes Middle East's third annual ranking of Top Indian Leaders in the Arab World 2015.
An award ceremony was held on Tuesday to honor leading Indian leaders in the Arab world. During the ceremony, more than 30 awards were presented to a group of Indian business owners, founders and C-level executives who have stamped their mark on the region.
In the owners and founders category, 90 out of the 100 entries reside in the UAE, with five also based in Kuwait and the remaining three business leaders residing in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Qatar.

Attesting to the long-standing impact of the region's NRIs, of the top 100 business owners/founders, 61 are in charge of companies that have been in operation for 20 years or more, with four companies established more than six decades ago.
"This is the third consecutive year that we are hosting this great event and the return of many familiar faces along with a number of newcomers, attests not just to the Indian legacy in the Arab world, but its great potential for the future," said Khuloud Al Omian, Editor-in-Chief, Forbes Middle East and Vice-President of Arab Publisher House.
