Global Competitiveness
Award
The Global Competitiveness Award honors leaders who have advanced the competitiveness agenda and made significant contributions to their nations, regions, cities, and globally. The Award recognizes trailblazers and groundbreakers who have brought together coalitions of people, leveraged new tools and models, championed new legislation and government policies, or ignited other activities to help strengthen their country’s competitiveness. These leaders transform how business is done, how government works with business, and how sectors come together to promote sustainability, innovation, growth, and prosperity for all of their citizens.
