World Travel Awards recognises ...
On a special evening in the Maldives for the Grand Final 2016, the World Travel Awards Academy bestowed its most prestigious honour, the title of Tourism Pioneer, on Hon. Ahmed Siyam Mohamed.
The title is a discretionary award, reserved for those few individuals who can truly be said to have had a transformative impact on global hospitality; those innovators who blaze a trail for others to follow.
Renowned for being one of the most energetic and visionary businessman in the country, Ahmed Siyam Mohamed, chief executive of Sun Siyam Group, is one of the youngest resort developers in the hospitality industry.
Since the inception of his first company, he has carefully developed his business to create a thriving resort chain in less than two decades.
Today, he is a well-respected businessman in the country and a much loved philanthropist.
He continues to inspire and guide over 3,000 dedicated and motivated employees and has earned the respect and admiration of all his staff and business partners.
