Arab Women of the Year Awards

Arab Women's Summit

Marking London Arabia’s tenth anniversary, the 2024 Arab Women of the Year Awards were presented in an elaborate ceremony and gala dinner. The event was once again held at the Carlton Tower Jumeirah Hotel on the 28th of February 2024. London Arabia partnered with the Embassy of the Kingdom of Bahrain, Diriyah, Marina Rinaldi, Europe Arab Bank and Atyab Al Marshoud for this years’ event. Seven incredible women were recognised for their achievements in a wide range of fields and the event was once again centred around telling their stories. Above all, the Arab Women of the Year Awards sent a clear message in support of humanity and peace and proved there is great unity and acceptance between the UK and Arab world, in a time when it is so needed.

The first annual Arab Women’s Summit was held in the iconic royal palace, Lancaster House on the 29th of February 2024. The Summit strove to shine a spotlight on the women already leading the way in fields such as trade, economics, art and culture exchange, media and more, rather than discuss the obstacles women still face worldwide. Speakers included former British Prime Minister Lady Theresa May, member of the Dubai Royal Family HH Sheikha Mozah bint Marwan Al Maktoum, Minister Nusrat Ghani, Lord Ahmad of Wimbedon, Sheikh Fawaz Al Khalifa and more. The event was held by London Arabia Organisation in partnership with the Embassy of the Kingdom of Bahrain, Diriyah Company, Europe Arab Bank and Marina Rinaldi.

A wide range of accomplishments were highlighted, with categories ranging from business to media to community service, and more. The event also hosted the launch of London Arabia’s Unlock Her Future initiative, with the support of Campaign Ambassador Yasmine Sabri
