Liliana Bakayoko Business Lawyer of the Year - Global
Top legal expertise to optimize your success across borders
Having already won multiple international awards, Liliana Bakayoko has now received the IE100 award for Business Lawyer of the Year - Global.
Liliana Bakayoko is an Attorney at Law admitted to the Paris and Sofia Bars, a Doctor of Law, and a former Professor of Law. She has 20 years of experience as a lawyer and ten years of experience teaching law.
She has been honored with several international awards, including being named the Top International Business Lawyer of the Year for 2024 by the International Association of Top Professionals, based in New York. Her law firm was recognized as the Best International Business Law Firm 2024 – EMEA by the Corporate Vision Global Business Awards. Additionally, she was named International Business Lawyer of the Year in France for 2024 at both the Global Law Experts Annual Awards and the Advisory Excellence Annual Awards. She was also recognized as the Leading International Business Lawyer of the Year – Paris at the 2023 Leading Adviser Awards by Acquisition International. She has been selected by Advisory Excellence, Leaders in Law, and Global Law Experts as their exclusively recommended and endorsed International Business Law Expert in France on a global level.
Liliana’s law firm specializes in international business law, IT law, corporate law, and intellectual property law. The services provided by the law firm include the following:
• Legal Advisory Services: Providing expert legal advice on matters related to international business law, including contract drafting and negotiation, regulatory compliance, risk management, corporate governance, and strategic business planning;
• Transaction Support: Assisting clients in structuring and executing various transactions, such as strategic alliances, joint ventures, and corporate reorganizations;
• International Expansion and Compliance: Offering guidance on international expansion strategies and compliance with international trade regulations;
• Dispute Resolution and Litigation: Providing effective dispute resolution services, including negotiation, mediation, arbitration, and litigation.
Liliana’s active participation and exclusive selection within worldrenowned legal networks enable her to collaborate with law firms in more than 150 countries.
“Highly qualified in international business law, Liliana Bakayoko has built a solid experience as a lawyer, teacher and consultant. Her exemplary career and her ability to adapt to the digitalization of the legal sector make her a key figure in this field.“ - FORBES
Liliana strongly believes in the societal duty of lawyers to drive positive change through their knowledge and legal expertise. She regularly publishes tutorials and articles aimed at helping businesses succeed in a global environment. Her focus extends to advancing discussions and evolving legal norms, particularly in the areas of business internationalization, neurorights, and the recognition of legal personality for certain forms of AI.
She advocates for a guiding principle she developed for businesses, which she calls ‘the positive perception of the law.’ She states, “The usual perception of the law as merely a series of restrictions and obligations to which we must conform is
reductive and distorting. When understood and used proactively, the law offers significant opportunities for innovation and strategic development.”
Liliana also explains, “The protection of trade secrets must be refined in the face of emerging technologies. Traditionally, we advised companies that to protect an innovative idea, it should be kept secret, with disclosures minimized (notably through confidentiality agreements) or materialized in a form that allows for the registration of a trademark, patent, design, model, or copyright. However, nowadays, trade secrets and the innovative ideas of entrepreneurs could be revealed against their will through the capture of their thoughts by technological means. Therefore, the legal protection of trade secrets must now reach a new level: it is about protecting the very thoughts of entrepreneurs and their innovative ideas before their possible expression through speech or writing
involving the use of limbs. This goal can be achieved with the help of neurorights.”
Liliana further argues that AI capable of making autonomous decisions must be able to hold obligations and bear responsibilities independently of its creators and users. She explains that to achieve this, such AI should be recognized as a distinct form of legal person.
“The advantages for humans and for society as a whole, of the recognition of a new form of sui generis legal personality specifically adapted to AI, would be considerable. These benefits would primarily involve an enhancement of legal certainty, a strengthening of human rights protection, and a stimulation of progress,” she explains.
Leveraging her extensive expertise and dedication to excellence, Liliana partners with businesses to navigate complex legal landscapes, manage risks, and achieve their strategic goals in the ever-evolving global market.

Surge & Lightning Protection Supplier of the Year - Pretoria - South Africa
Illuminating the path to electrical safety
In the ever-evolving landscape of electrical protection, one company stands out as a beacon of innovation and reliability.
Africa Surge Protection Pty Ltd, under the visionary leadership of Jason Roper, has been recognized as the Surge & Lightning Protection Supplier of the Year in Pretoria, South Africa by the prestigious International Elite 100 program. This accolade is a testament to the company’s unwavering commitment to excellence and its pivotal role in safeguarding electrical systems across the continent.
Founded in 1991, Africa Surge Protection has been at the forefront of developing cutting-edge surge protection solutions tailored to the unique challenges of the African market. The company’s journey is marked by a series of groundbreaking innovations, most notably the WONDERPLUG and SURGEMATE. These products have revolutionized the industry, offering unparalleled protection against the devastating effects of power surges and load shedding.
The WONDERPLUG, a household name in surge protection, has set a new standard in the industry. Its unmatched quality and reliability have made it the go-to solution for both residential and commercial applications. Competitors have attempted to replicate its success, but the WONDERPLUG remains unrivaled in its effectiveness and durability.
Building on this success, Africa Surge Protection introduced the SURGEMATE, heralding a new era in surge and loadshedding protection. This advanced design represents the culmination of years of research and development, addressing the specific needs of a market plagued by inconsistent power supply.
What sets Africa Surge Protection apart is not just its innovative products, but its deep understanding of local challenges. The company has developed specialized solutions like the ASP401, designed explicitly to combat the impacts of load shedding – a critical issue in South Africa. This focus on local manufacturing and tailored solutions has positioned Africa Surge Protection as the most comprehensive provider of surge protectors in Africa.
The company’s commitment to quality is evident in its adherence to international standards. All products are certified by CE, IEC, ICASA, SANS, and a BV certified ISO9001 company, ensuring that they meet the highest global benchmarks for safety and performance. This dedication to excellence has not only earned Africa Surge Protection international recognition but has also fostered trust among its diverse clientele, ranging from large OEMs to individual consumers.
Looking to the future, Jason Roper and his team are not resting on their laurels. The company is actively expanding its product line, exploring new markets, and pushing the boundaries of surge protection technology. With plans for global expansion and continued innovation, Africa Surge Protection is poised to extend its impact far beyond the borders of South Africa.
The International Elite 100 award is more than just a recognition of past achievements; it’s a testament to Africa Surge Protection’s potential for future growth and innovation. As the world becomes increasingly reliant on electronic systems,
the need for robust surge protection has never been more critical. Africa Surge Protection, with its proven track record and forwardthinking approach, is well-positioned to meet this growing demand.
In an industry where reliability is paramount, Africa Surge Protection has distinguished itself not just as a manufacturer, but as a trusted partner in electrical safety. The company’s success story is a shining example of how local expertise, combined with global standards, can create solutions that resonate on an international scale.
As Africa Surge Protection continues to illuminate the path to electrical safety, it stands as a proud representative of African innovation and a beacon of excellence in the global surge protection industry.

Annie Fennymore Sight-Impaired Artist of the Year - Blind Alley Art - UK
Seeing art differently
Annie Fennymore has been registered blind for 22 years and she has her third guide dog Mary as constant companion.
Annie is an award-winning artist who, since being told she would have no vision by the age of 40, has gone on to create a unique form of tactile art. She uses Blu Tack to outline the subject, fills in the shapes with raised mediums such as acrylic lava gel or sculpting pastes, and then applies acrylic paints with her fingers. Each painting carries a story based on things which inspire her - like poetry and beauty spots.
Annie uses an electronic aid to help her identify the paint tube colours she requires. The device, known as Penfriend, comes with barcode labels that stick onto any object. The top of the pen is a voice recorder and, when the barcode label is in place, Annie’s voice records the colour of the paint. The pen point recognises the barcode and reads the colour of the paint tube aloud. This makes it easy for Annie to identify the colours she needs.
In 2011, Annie won ‘highly commended’ for the portrait of her then guide dog, Amber, in the Helen Keller International Art Award. This encouraged her to develop her artwork further and so she founded Blind Alley Art.
workshops and talks, and is an accomplished after dinner speaker. She hopes to inspire those with sight loss to not give up on art if they feel that their love of art has deserted them.
Annie says, “When we suffer sight loss our lives do change enormously but I felt that accepting where I was and working with the sight loss, and developing my strengths and adapting has freed me from what I describe as visual restrictions about art, and creativity in general. I was really not a good student of art when I was a girl, in fact art per se just terrified me! But when the last of my vision went, it was as if all barriers I felt had surrounded art were lifted, giving me total freedom of expression”.
“When the last of my vision went, it was as if all barriers I felt had surrounded art were lifted, giving me total freedom of expression”
In 2014, Annie’s first solo exhibition at Sunbury Embroidery Gallery was funded and supported by Arts Council (England). This was a turning point in her art career - enabling her to introduce her unique artwork to a wider audience.
She now shows her work throughout the country. She gives demonstrations,
Annie is a volunteer with Essex Blind Charity and Deaf/ Blind UK. She has worked with Blind Veterans in Brighton where they have taken on some of her methods and techniques to share with their clients.
She is a member of the Royal Marines Charity and one of her paintings ‘Poppies’ has been endorsed by the charity and is available to buy from Royal Marines’ website with all proceeds going to marines in need of support.
Annie has been featured in numerous national and local newspapers and magazines and has had the pleasure of being interviewed on British Forces Radio Service, following her visit to Chavasse VC House, in Colchester, Essex.
Annie is a member and listed speaker of National Women’s Register (NWR) and has extended her teaching
to include online tutoring and offers one-to-one tuition where she shares her methods and techniques using a step-by-step programme individually planned for each client to encourage and to support those with sight loss.
Annie is a popular speaker and visits schools, universities and art groups. She works with children with disabilities and adults with learning difficulties. Wherever she is invited, her guide dog Mary is constantly by her side. Annie says, “Wherever we visit, we know it will always evolve into delightful chaos - no one can resist a guide dog.”

Kevin Sanjari
Security
President
of the Year - Paragon Security - Canada
Investing in tomorrow
Under the visionary leadership of Kevin Sanjari, President of Paragon Security, the company’s commitment to developing its leaders is stronger than ever.
With nearly four decades of experience at Paragon, Kevin has made it his mission to empower the workforce through innovation, training, and communityfocused partnerships. This year, Kevin launched two major initiatives that not only support employees but also enhance the quality of service for Paragon’s extensive client network.
Recognizing that an effective security force requires specialized skills, Paragon has sent 35 members of it’s leadership team to the University of South Florida located in Tampa, Florida and to the Henderson Police Department in Las Vegas, Nevada to study both basic and advanced Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) with the National Crime Prevention Institute (NCIP). This training provides staff with advanced tools to anticipate and mitigate security risks, giving them a proactive approach to ensuring safety. Kevin understands that security personnel are not just guards; they are community protectors equipped with a deep understanding of how environments influence behavior. Through this investment, Paragon ensures that their team is wellprepared to meet client needs with expertise and confidence. Paragon has a 3 year plan to match this investment, aiming to provide Security Reviews to each of their 700+ client’s sites before the end of 2027.
In addition to technical training, Kevin has prioritized mental health education, recognizing that frontline security work demands both resilience and support. By partnering with the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH), Paragon now offers dedicated mental health training to its field employees equipping them with the resources and strategies to manage stress and enhance well-being. This initiative reflects Kevin’s holistic view of employee development,
emphasizing mental and emotional readiness alongside technical skills.
By working with clients, educational institutions, and leading organizations like CAMH, Kevin Sanjari is building a foundation that not only elevates Paragon’s standards but also redefines what it means to be a trusted security provider in Ontario. Paragon’s dedication to training and well-being demonstrates the power of investing in people to protect what matters most.

GC Skin Boutique
Laser Hair Removal Specialists of the Year - Gold Coast - Australia
Inspiring clients to feel their best
GC Skin Boutique is a cosmetic clinic with a team of Dermal Therapists, Laser Technicians, Beauty Therapists and Cosmetic Nurses. GC is renowned as the Best Laser Hair Removal Specialists in the Gold Coast and, since its establishment in 2017, has grown exponentially.
Gabrielle Singh founded GC Skin Boutique in 2017, creating an environment that draws in such a wide diversity of clients of all ages and gender. Initially, GC started with a moderate service list to accommodate almost all the needs of its clients. However, due to a lack of offering within the community, over time, this list has grown and added additional services to cater to the wider needs of its clients, particularly within the advancing anti-ageing sector.
Moreover, Gabrielle has spent nearly three years formulating her cosmeceutical skincare range, Cosmology Skincare, which she launched 12 months ago. During this time, GC has seen an abundance of success and aims to continue the growth. Gabrielle explains, “The results we have received are phenomenal, and again this comes with creating a skincare range that is designed to see visible results and educate our customers.”
Gabrielle has taken her knowledge and experience with clients and their skin concerns and put that into creating something GC is confident that clients will love. Gabrielle states, “Our goals and values certainly have changed over the years, as social media influences today’s beauty image. It’s an unrealistic image for our younger generation to follow,
so I pride myself on educating the young and influencing them more positively and getting our clients to feel confident within their skin.”
The difference between GC and other competitors is that it thrives on having a boutique style and giving all its clients a personalised luxury experience. Gabrielle explains, “We have clients who travel to GC in Coolangatta from Brisbane, Byron Bay, and we have had clients come from the Sunshine Coast and Coffs Harbour to visit our clinic. Without our clients, we don’t have a business, so they are the most important thing to us.”
For GC, it is essential to stay ahead of trends and the team are therefore always searching for new and innovative treatments and technology. Gabrielle states, “We wouldn’t be doing our clients justice if we couldn’t bring them the best there is - this is our job: to bring the knowledge and experience to our clients. We thrive off results, and to grow in this industry, you need to be up to date with everything because the beauty industry is forever growing, and it’s not going to slow down.”
The internal culture at GC is about bringing to life a skin health and wellness brand to inspire its clients to look and feel their confident best. Gabrielle explains, “We want to take our clients on an individual journey of empowerment to achieve that inner beauty and confidence that is within them. By doing that, we are not only giving them an amazing experience in the clinic but making them feel part of a group of empowering women who support each other by building other women up.”
Currently, GC is working on opening a second clinic located in the famous Surfers Paradise. Gabrielle explains everything from the interior
designer to the builder, and everyone involved is incredible. So much thought has been put into every little detail, and I am so excited for everyone to experience this space and continue on this journey with us.”
The beauty industry seems to be changing today to be embracing a more holistic and natural approach. Gabrielle states, “Clients are moving away from traditional beauty treatments and are investing more in high-end anti-ageing treatments that rejuvenate, hydrate and plump the skin rather than using fillers that create an unnatural look.”
Due to this change, GC aims to continue its research in the industry and implement anything new that the team believes in and meet popular customer demand.
