Qimpro Awards
The 30th Qimpro Awards Ceremony was held on Wednesday 13th November in Mumbai. This property is owned by Qimpro Foundation.

Thank you Sachin for your positive feedback.
Bittu Sahgal is a crusader for Save The Planet. We first met two decades back, fascinated by each others mission. We now find our missions are converging.
I had the priviledge to attend last 5 Qimpro Awards and understand new leadership perspective from receipants. From customer centric organizations to healthcare and education enterprises, their organizations have created stakeholder wealth consistently over the years. The most touching moments have been to hear from enviroment leaders such as Bittoo Sehgal. Thank You for inviting us to Qimpro Awards and making us feel, a part of your journey.
