Dr. Rajan Lekhraj Mahtani, a noted businessman and philanthropist in Zambia, was recently conferred with one of the most prestigious philanthropy and leadership awards in Zambia. This award is Forbes ‘Best of Africa’ awards which was organized by Forbes in partnership with Foreign Investment Limited (FIN). Forbes is one of the top business magazines across the globe and therefore, the award carries significant weight along with global recognition. Furthermore, the process of selecting the awards is extremely transparent yet rigorous. The process involves months of verifications and background checks by both Forbes and Fin. This is followed by interview and discussions with the potential recipients regarding their views and perceptions towards philanthropy to achieve long-term empowerment for Africa, its economy as well as its people. As a result, the annual Forbes ‘Best of Africa’ awards is a highly anticipated and regarded award ceremony for business Africa.
This year’s Forbes ‘Best of Africa’ awards was a part of the FIN philanthropy and leadership roundtable conference.
