The Burj Global Power 100 Gala and Global Power Summit was held on 22 May 2026 at the JW Marriott Hotel Shanghai at Tomorrow Square. It was hosted by CEO Clubs Network and, according to coverage of the event, honoured 25 chief executives and entrepreneurs before an audience of about 200 guests.

Sukh Sandhu was among those present and recognised at the event. In his own announcement he said he had received the award, and that account is his rather than an independent citation: the coverage available names him among attendees and honourees without setting out an individual citation.

He separately holds an Asia Pacific CEO of the Year award from the Burj CEO Awards, given as chief executive of Career Calling International, which is listed on that company's own awards page.

The Burj Global Power 100 is run by the Burj CEO Awards, which describes the programme as recognising business leadership across industries and markets. Nomination is by submission through the organiser's own form.

Disclosure: Sukh Sandhu owns Sukh Sandhu Pty Ltd, which publishes this masthead. This notice records an announcement about the publisher and is written to the same sourcing standard as any other item.
