Arabella Gibson, CEO of Gidget Foundation Australia
Not-For-Profit Executive of the Year
“Being named 2021 Not-for-Profit Executive of the Year by The CEO magazine meant that I had a platform that allowed me to shine a light on the importance of mental health for Australian families which is something I am very grateful to The CEO Magazine for!”
Alex Harper, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Swyftx
Young Executive of the Year

Caterina Nesci, Director ESG and International Partnerships
