The jury

Nine to twelve jurors per edition, drawn from business leadership, investment, academia and senior journalism. They score independently, meet once, and decide.

Asian Power Brands and Leaders 2026. The jury for this edition is published before the shortlist is announced on 28 October 2026. Each juror is listed with photograph, role, organisation and the categories they judge.

How jurors are appointed

The editor invites jurors for their standing in the edition's region and sectors. A jury chair is appointed for each edition. No juror judges a category in which their organisation, or a client or portfolio company, has entered.

Independence declaration

Every juror signs a declaration confirming they have no financial or personal interest in any entry they score, that they have received nothing from any entrant, and that they will recuse from any category where a conflict arises. Recusals are recorded and published in summary with the results.
