Winners were recognised across various categories such as Leaders in Energy, Innovators in Energy, and CSR Influencers in Energy. All the entries demonstrated exceptional vision, leadership qualities, and an entrepreneurial spirit.

Through these awards, ENOC Group aims to elevate knowledge sharing among the industry as well as establish a platform to recognise women in the UAE and their efforts to enhance the energy sector in the country.
