Two weeks left for Jewish Achiever Awards nominations

Excitement is fast building for this year’s Jewish Achiever Awards in partnership with Investec, which will be held on 2 November 2025.

While we have less time than usual for our nomination period, nominations are still coming in fast and furious. So far, in just two weeks, we have had 450 nominations, and hopefully many more to come.

We have only until 18:00 on 12 September – only two weeks left – to get all the nominations in, which doesn’t give us much time at all. So, make sure not to think too hard before nominating those people who stand head and shoulders above for the incredible work they do as business leaders; entrepreneurs; women in leadership; rising stars; humanitarians; people in the arts, sports, and science arena, among others.

When we launched the Rising Star Award two years ago, it was for an emerging leader in the community under the age of 25 who demonstrated exceptional achievement and potential in their field such as entrepreneurship, humanitarian work, or community service, This criteria still exists, but we have moved the eligible age to under the age of 30. So, the winner of this award must be 30 or under on 2 November 2025.

Nominations for any of the Jewish Achiever Awards are simple to do. Use the QR code in the adverts on these pages; nominate via the bit.ly link, bit.ly/jaa25nom; or email nominations@jewishachievers.co.za and give your personal contact details, the name of the person you are nominating, a brief or long reason for your nomination, and as many contact details for the nominee as possible. The Jewish Achiever Awards team will do the rest.

So, get nominating, because nominations come to an end at exactly 18:00 on 12 September. There’s little time left.
