Adar Poonawalla, CEO, Serum Institute of India was awarded the prestigious title of IAA Business Leader of the Year 2023 for unlocking India’s potential in the healthcare sector, for revolutionising vaccine manufacturing, for his outstanding leadership during the covid-19 pandemic, for his commitment to social responsibility and contribution to public health, for elevating an Indian brand to Global recognition and for making a tremendous impact on society at large.
The International Advertising Association (IAA) India Chapter, a leading association for marketing, advertising, and media professionals, hosted the grand 10th edition of the prestigious IAA Leadership Awards on Wednesday, August 9 2023, at the St. Regis Hotel in Mumbai. The Awards served as a platform to recognize and celebrate the outstanding achievements of industry leaders.
On being honoured, Adar Poonawala, said, “I am truly humbled to receive the IAA Business Leader of the Year Award. It vindicates the risk that my team and I took during the pandemic as it was a tough time for everyone and a time of great uncertainty. We could not have been able to do this without our counter staff and workers, health care workers, the Government of India, and State government. I have always believed that the Serum Institute has been a national asset to the country and during the pandemic this became more evident. I feel privileged and honoured that I can lead such an institute and serve the nation and humanity at large and will continue to do so.”
