Describe The Screening Process
All nominations undergo an initial screening based on eligibility criteria, including factors such as industry recognition, innovation, leadership, service, sustainability, and social responsibility. This screening is conducted by a panel of industry experts selected for their expertise and impartiality.
Applicants must demonstrate excellence or world-class achievement in areas such as Leadership, Service, Research, Innovation, Teaching, Mentoring or Artistic Accomplishment.

Shortlisted individuals and businesses will be notified and may be asked to provide additional information, including company profiles, achievements, and testimonials. This data will be incorporated into the Rasch model analysis to refine the evaluation.
The Rasch model prioritizes quantitative factors, focusing on measurable data that objectively determines a business’s success. This approach ensures a fair, unbiased, and objective evaluation process.

The Rasch model analysis is conducted by our panel of industry experts and judges. They interpret the results, considering the unique context of each applicant to identify truly outstanding individuals and businesses.
