New category open for businesses that show ‘maturity’ and win major awards

Abu Dhabi: Twenty-one companies emerged winners in the newly created Excellence Elite Category forming part of the Sheikh Khalifa Excellence Award (SKEA) in Abu Dhabi.
This category is for outstanding local and international entities that showed corporate maturity by winning prestigious awards. These entities must also show high operational indicators - technical, administrative, and financial – and which can be taken as a model locally and internationally. The awards are instituted by Abu Dhabi Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
“This year’s cycle of the award was exceptional due to the pandemic and all activities were held under exceptional circumstances,” said Saeed Abdul Jalil Al-Fahim, Chairman of SKEA Higher Committee. “This led the SKEA Office to transform all its programmes digitally to be held virtually.”
The meetings of the judging panels were convened via conferencing platforms, through which the panels approved the final list of winning participants and raised their recommendations to the SKEA higher committee.
