Awards & Business E-Summit & Greatest Brands and Leaders 2020-21– Asia, Middle East & Africa.
With the vision of bringing together business and social leaders from Asia, Middle East and Africa on a global platform for mutual welfare and collaboration, AsiaOne Media Group organized the 14th Edition of Asia-Africa Business and Social Forum: Awards & Business E-summit on 27th August’21 at Zoom Digital Platform. The one-day mega E-Summit was joined by esteemed dignitaries from India, Singapore, Dubai, Thailand, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Thailand, China/Hong Kong, Myanmar, Cambodia, the UAE, Oman, Malaysia, USA, UK, Nigeria, and South Africa where key leaders from business and government sectors congregated to facilitate fresher avenues of economic cooperation, networking and investment opportunities in the Asian, Middle east and the African region.Once again, AsiaOne Media Group created a unique and unmatched platform where highly intellectual and insightful thoughts were created on the significance of collaboration and mutual cooperation especially in the light of the pandemic.
The Summit was organized by AsiaOne magazine and URS Media, which is rapidly emerging as the Number 1 international media company towards the cause of business, political and social issues in the entire Asia & Middle east, thus supporting not only the Indian Government’s initiatives such as Skilling India, Digitizing India, and Incredible India, but also supporting United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals and World Health Organization’s targets. Darwin Platform Group of Companies (DPGC) was the Preferred Partner for the entire Summit and Awards.
Through the 14th Edition of Asia-Africa Business & Social Forum 2021, envious social and economic progress of Asia, Middle East and Africa was highlighted. At the same time, the Forum emerged as a spectacular platform of intense discussions indulging some of the great leaders of our time – Union Government Ministers, Ambassadors, Business Owners, Investors, Government & Royal Dignitaries and professionals like CEOs, CFOs, CTOs, CHROs, from the Indian Subcontinent, South Asia and the Middle East.
Mr. Rajat Raj Shukal, the Global Head & Principal Partner, AsiaOne magazine and URS Media Consulting P.L., opened the forum and talked about how Asia and Africa have to come together in the post COVID-19 times to collaborate for a convergence and creating a New Renaissance which should focus on creating more new Businesses which are technology-enabled as this would create more Business Leaders from Asian, Middle Eastern and African regions and generate more employment opportunities and add contribution to the GDP and grow the economies. AsiaOne and Darwin Platform Group of companies – the preferred partner for the 14th Edition Asia-Africa Business and Social Forum 2021 would come together and initiate a TV reality show where 40 million higher education students first from India would be reached out for scouting their business ideas and then a three tier selection would be done by industry experts and a few inspiring ideas will be seed funded and created in to ventures, this would first start as an initiative from India, being called “Let’s Make Great India Again” as we are the largest youth in current demographics and then further a similar platform would be initiated in other countries of Asia, Africa and the Middle East.
Another important aspect he spoke about was mental health, especially for the youth, who currently may not get good employment opportunities in the COVID-19 times since many businesses have slowed down. And a similar message was also broadcasted by Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar ji who was also awarded the AsiaOne COVID-19 Commitment Award 2020-21. Gurudev spoke about mental health as one of the biggest challenges that the world is facing today and was pleased to participate and hear that 400 awardees were being recognised at the forum and were being motivated in these unprecedented times.
