Awards for Excellence
Trust—or, too often, the lack of it—is one of the central issues of our time. Without trust, institutions don’t work, societies falter and people lose faith in their leaders. In today’s world it is imperative to project and recognise role models that cultivate and promote trust, integrity and accountability.
Through the GTF Awards for Excellence Gala we brought together leaders and representatives from businesses, governments and civil society with a goal to celebrate achievements, promote business and raise awareness around the success stories for male and women leaders who lead by example. A robust networking opportunity, the GTF Awards for Excellence Gala provided a unique, entertaining, thought-provoking platform for conversation, exposure and high-level networking with a selection of invited luminaries.
In our not-to-miss event in London we celebrated individuals who, through their actions and projects, contribute to trust building.
