Based on the Recurring Successes of her Companies across the Region Nashwa Al Ruwaini Wins Forbes magazine Most Powerful Arab Women Award 2015

Media personality Nashwa Al Ruwaini, CEO of Pyramedia Production Company has once again won Forbes- Middle East magazines Most Powerful Arab Women Award 2015. The impressive awards ceremony, which marks the third annual ranking of its kind, was held in Dubai and attended by an elite group of business women and socialite, who have reached the very top of their game as executives, heads of family businesses, or founders.

The magazine credited the selection of Nashwa Al Ruwaini to months of research and in-depth analysis carried out by Forbess Research Team into Al Ruwainis companies projects in various countries, weighting of company size, profits for 2014, assets or employees, and whether their financial statements are publicly available, in addition to Nashwa Al Ruwainis stature and influence in the social and media circles.

Mrs. Khuloud Al Omian, Editor-in-Chief; Forbes Middle East, said: "The magazine is pleased to announce the highly anticipated list of the Most Powerful Arab Women for the third consecutive year. This award stems from Forbess vision to recognize the success and achievements of Arab women across all sectors, particularly those ladies with unlimited capacities, innovation and creativity and who take appropriate decisions and contribute to support the Arab region's economy.

Nashwa Al Ruwaini expressed her gratitude for this prestigious recognition. This award means a lot to me, especially as the Forbes list includes many leading figures from across the Arab countries, and it is an honor that prompts me to strive towards further success, she said.

The CEO of Pyramedia production company added that this recognition is of a special kind because it was issued by a renowned and leading specialized publication. It highlights the active and successful role of women in all sectors of business, recognizing the most influential and accomplished female figures in several industry sectors that remained male-dominated for decades. She also emphasized that Arab women are lucky to find support in their efforts to achieve leadership across various businesses. There is no excuse for failure; we all have the necessary tools to improve our career.

Nashwa Al Ruwaini took the 23th spot on Forbes list of the 200 Most Powerful Arab Women, and is the first figure from the media field to be included in the list, which is dominated by patrons of the political, economic and business sectors.
