The event will be held under the patronage of H.H. Sheikh Sultan bin Mohammed bin Sultan Al Qasimi, Crown Prince and Deputy Ruler of Sharjah, at the Expo Centre Sharjah.

A total of 18 winners were approved by the board during the gathering.
"The SCCI is keen on encouraging excellence and creativity to push the private sector forward into new horizons towards growth and development and fostering its role in the economic integration process by focusing on developing the performance and efficiency of private sector enterprises, not only in Sharjah but also in the GCC," said Abdullah Sultan Al Owais.

Mohammad Ahmed Amin Al-Awadi said, "The Sharjah Excellence Award is constantly evolving, as part of the SCCI’s keenness to contribute to the promotion of a culture of excellence in the private sector.
This underlines Sharjah as a driving force for economic development and a regional hub for providing the best scientific and practical practices in the region."
