ACES Awards 2025: Asia Business Awards for Leadership, Sustainability & Innovation Nominations
24th April 2025, Kathmandu
In a world overflowing with accolades, one platform continues to raise the bar on meaningful recognition. The Asia Corporate Excellence & Sustainability (ACES) Awards have opened Wave 2 nominations for its 2025 edition, inviting Singapore’s leading businesses and executives to benchmark themselves against the region’s highest standards of leadership, innovation, and sustainability.
ACES Awards 2025
Now in its 12th year, ACES has earned a reputation for rigour, credibility, and substance. Unlike awards driven by sponsorships or popularity, ACES is guided by a comprehensive evaluation framework, a dedicated research team, and a panel that values action over appearances.
Singapore has long stood at the intersection of innovation, governance, and sustainability. With over 100 ACES Awards secured by Singapore-based organisations, the nation’s business community continues to lead by example, proving that true excellence is not just measurable, but repeatable.
In 2024, Gensler Singapore earned the Green Initiative Award, while Regional Managing Principal David Calkins was again named an Outstanding Leader in Asia. Tata Consultancy Services Asia Pacific, headquartered in Singapore, was named Industry Champion of the Year, reflecting the city-state’s growing ESG influence.
“ACES was built to recognise leadership that holds up to scrutiny,” said Dr. Shanggari Balakrishnan, President of ACES and CEO of MORS Group. “Singaporean companies often ask the hard questions—about transparency, process, and integrity. That’s why they belong on this platform.”
The ACES Awards 2025 will take place on 27–28 November, shortly after COP30 in Rio de Janeiro. The host city—Bali, Taiwan, or Malaysia—will be announced in June.
