Entrepreneurs create wealth, jobs and drive innovation.

Ever since our launch in May 2009, Forbes India has been a champion of entrepreneurial capitalism, in line with the Forbes’ DNA. We also share the vision that over the next ten years, India has a never-before chance to create an entrepreneurial renaissance.

Apart from chronicling that journey, Forbes India seeks to play a catalytic role in spotting and recognizing outstanding entrepreneurs. Instituting The Forbes India Leadership Awards is, therefore, one big step in that direction. In many ways, the themes behind each award category reflect the editorial agenda of our magazine. At Forbes India, we believe in the spirit of fair play: entrepreneurs need to follow the rules. That’s why we put in enormous effort to research each nomination and put them through a stringent methodology.
