KEPCO Named to Forbes Sustainability Leaders List for Fourth Consecutive Year

Forbes Middle East has selected Sheikha Adana Nasser Al-Sabah Al-Sabah, Chief Executive Officer of Kuwait Projects Company Holding (KIPCO), for its 2026 Sustainability Leaders list for the fourth consecutive year, in recognition of the group’s sustained efforts to embed sustainability practices and strengthen governance across its subsidiaries.

The honor was awarded in the Investment Companies and Holding Companies category during the fourth edition of the Forbes Middle East Sustainability Leaders Summit, held in Abu Dhabi on October 19 and 20 under the theme “Resilience for a Sustainable Future,” with the patronage of Dr. Amina bint Abdullah Al-Dhaheri Al-Shamsi, Minister of Climate Change and Environment of the United Arab Emirates. The award was accepted on behalf of KIPCO by Mishaari Al-Dahim, Senior Manager of Corporate Communications and Investor Relations.

This recognition reflects KIPCO’s efforts to adopt an integrated sustainability approach across its diverse investment portfolio. Through a sustainability task force comprising representatives from its companies, the group works to enhance the exchange of expertise and knowledge, harmonize practices, develop sustainability reporting mechanisms, and elevate environmental responsibility and governance standards.

These efforts were highlighted in KIPCO’s fifth annual Sustainability Report, released earlier this year under the title “Purposeful Growth: A Shared Sustainability Journey,” which underscored the collective progress made by the group’s companies toward achieving shared sustainability goals.

Commenting on the occasion, Iman Al-Awadi, Senior Vice President of Communications and Investor Relations at the group, said: “Being selected for the Forbes Middle East Sustainability Leaders list for the fourth consecutive year reflects the progress we have achieved at the group level. For us, sustainability goes beyond disclosing our commitments; it involves translating these commitments into practical steps, strengthening governance, and embedding responsible practices across all aspects of our operations. By aligning our companies around shared priorities and objectives, we continue to build a more resilient and adaptable group, enhancing our ability to deliver long-term sustainable value for our shareholders and the communities in which we operate.”
