Emphasising the importance of recognising those who drive excellence across the continent, Founder, The Iconic Brand Africa (TIBA), Mrs. Adeola Osideko, stated that, “The people and organisations shaping Africa’s future are not always the loudest in the room. Sometimes, their impact is seen in the businesses they build, the people they influence, the problems they solve and the standards they set in their industries. The TIBA Awards are about identifying those stories, giving them the recognition they deserve and creating a platform that encourages others to aspire to excellence.”
TIBA Awards & Conference is an annual platform dedicated to recognising excellence and creating opportunities for conversations around leadership, influence and business growth. Individuals, organisations, professional networks and members of the public are invited to nominate deserving candidates who have demonstrated exceptional performance, leadership, innovation or impact in their respective fields.
Nominations for this year’s edition are open until August 31, 2026.
