Excitement has reached an all-time high as the 2025 Prime Minister’s International Business Awards Gala tickets have officially sold out, reflecting the strong momentum and ambition within Fiji’s business community.

Investment Fiji CEO Kamal Chetty says the event, scheduled for Saturday, 29th November 2025, will mark its 33rd year under the theme: Navigating Global Winds – Resilience, Innovation and Sustainable Growth.

He says this year’s Awards aim to honour businesses that have achieved commercial success while demonstrating resilience, sustainability and innovation amid global challenges.

Chetty says the event is recognised as the country’s premier business celebration, shining a spotlight on companies and individuals driving Fiji’s economic progress.

He adds that the overwhelming support and the fact that the Awards are completely sold out shows the incredible energy and ambition within Fiji’s business sector.

Chetty says this platform celebrates the remarkable contributions of our private sector — from climate resilience and digital transformation to inclusive growth.

He also highlights that attendees can expect an unforgettable night showcasing powerful examples of success.

Chetty says the gala will feature a keynote address by Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka, who will outline the Government’s vision for the future of Fiji’s private sector and highlight its vital role in national development.

The night will culminate with the announcement of category winners and the presentation of the Supreme Award, sponsored by FIJI Water.

Chetty says Investment Fiji also acknowledges the support of its Category Sponsors, including BSP Financial Group Limited, DHL Express Fiji, Westpac Fiji, the Reserve Bank of Fiji, Tropik Wood Industries, Vodafone Fiji, Telecom Fiji, HFC Bank, Swire Shipping, the Fiji National Provident Fund, Tower Insurance, the iTaukei Executive Forum, the Ministry of Agriculture and Waterways, and the Ministry of Forestry.

He adds that the organisation has also extended its appreciation to Event Partners — Digital Bureau, Events Plus, FBC, Fiji Kava, Fiji Sun, Motibhai Group, Nama Fiji, and Sheraton Fiji Golf & Beach Resort — whose collaboration helps elevate the national event.
