Neak Oknha Chen Zhi was the only entrepreneur honoured in a category that celebrates leaders running multi-industry businesses. Neak Oknha Chen Zhi was one of three Asian leaders who recognised for "dynamic entrepreneurialism in different sectors during one of the most challenging years in corporate leadership".
In addition, Prince Group also won the Bronze Award in the Most Valuable Corporate Response (COVID-19 category). This comes three months after it had won recognition for the best COVID-19 Corporate Response at the eighth annual Asia-Pacific Stevie Awards in May 2021.
The 2021 International Business Awards received more than 3,800 entries from organisations in 63 nations. Neak Oknha Chen Zhi’s Gold Stevie Award in the Entrepreneur of the Year – Conglomerates and Prince Group’s Bronze Stevie Award in the Most Valuable Corporate Response category were confirmed after two months of voting by a panel of 260 professionals and key decision-makers from across the globe.
Over the past year, various member companies of the Group were called upon by Neak Oknha Chen Zhi to make a difference in the lives of employees, affected communities and frontline staff. In March 2021, Neak Oknha Chen Zhi donated US$3 million to the Cambodian government’s anti-pandemic efforts after an initial US$3 million donated in December 2020 to help Cambodia purchase 1 million COVID-19 vaccines. Neak Oknha Chen Zhi also asked the Group to promptly organise several rounds of COVID-19 vaccinations for its 3,500+ employees.
Recently, Neak Oknha Chen Zhi signed off on a long-term partnership with Caring For Cambodia, a leading education charity focusing on underprivileged students, and the Group will sponsor Career Preparation, an initiative seeking to help over 3,000 students navigate the uncertain post-pandemic educational and employment landscape by empowering them with necessary skills and knowledge.
Neak Oknha Chen Zhi has also undertaken a pivot towards sustainable development by launching Ream City, an 834-hectare coastal development project built on sustainable real estate principles.
Canopy Sands Development, a member of the Group, has begun work on the project that aims to set a precedent in the country with adherence to international standards. Canopy Sands Development will soon release its inaugural environment, social and governance report as well.
