Strategic Nest Corporation (SNC), a premier public relations firm redefining Africa’s image on the global stage, has officially launched the Strategic Business and Leadership Awards 2025.
SNC has established itself as a leading platform for recognising, amplifying, and celebrating excellence across Africa and beyond. Under the leadership of its Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Samuel Njari, the firm has consistently built avenues that highlight achievement, influence perception, and elevate the visibility of individuals, brands, and institutions driving positive change.
The company has developed three flagship programs that have gained continental recognition: The Nest 100, which identifies 100 outstanding changemakers across sectors, The Strategic Business and Leadership Awards, which honour exemplary achievements in leadership and enterprise, and The Excellence Africa Awards, which spotlight innovation and transformative initiatives.
The 2025 edition of the Strategic Business and Leadership Awards is designed to honour leaders and organizations that continue to make real impact in society. SNC emphasizes that recognition is not bought, lobbied for, or dependent on popular votes, but earned through proven excellence, innovation, and service to community.
The process leading to the awards has been extensive and deliberate. The SNC secretariat spent months conducting rigorous research, drawing insights from community voices, and engaging with industry experts to identify potential honourees. The final outcome is a carefully curated list covering 50 categories, ranging from corporate leadership, social impact, public service, entrepreneurship, innovation, to community development.
This year’s awards are not only a celebration of achievement but also a call to inspire future generations. By elevating authentic role models, SNC aims to showcase examples of integrity, transformative leadership, and dedication to service that can inspire change beyond borders.
The awards ceremony will take place on November 7, 2025, in Nairobi, bringing together business leaders, policymakers, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders from across Africa and beyond. The event is expected to be one of the continent’s most prestigious gatherings, reinforcing SNC’s role in shaping Africa’s narrative of progress and excellence.
Through such initiatives, Strategic Nest Corporation continues to position itself as a champion of African achievement, ensuring that those who drive meaningful change are recognised and celebrated at the highest levels.
