The 2015 ICIS Kavaler Award, sponsored by The Chemists’ Club, and in association with The Valence Group, will be awarded to Andrew N. Liveris, chairman and chief executive officer of The Dow Chemical Company, in recognition for outstanding achievement as voted on by his peers.
This unique global chemical industry award will be presented to Mr. Liveris at a black tie dinner ceremony on Tuesday, Oct. 27, 2015, at the main branch of the New York Public Library in New York City.
The distinguishing feature of this award is that the winner is selected by his/her peers – the senior executives selected in the ICIS Top 40 Power Players listing – a global ranking of the leaders making the greatecst impact on the chemical industry.
“Under the leadership of Mr. Liveris, Dow is making transformational moves – from feedstock advantaged capital investments on the US Gulf Coast and in the Middle East, to divestitures of non-core assets such as the tax-advantaged deal to carve-out the chlor-alkali and derivatives business,” said Joseph Chang, global editor of ICIS Chemical Business.
“I am honored to be selected as the recipient of the 2015 ICIS Kavaler Award and proud to join a distinguished legacy of honorees,” said Liveris. “This recognition belongs to all of Dow’s women and men – our Human Element at work. It acknowledges our proactive and consistent implementation of Dow’s market-driven strategy, as we continue to position our company for long-term value growth.”
In the award selection process, ICIS and The Chemists’ Club invited each of the ICIS Top 40 Power Players for 2014 to vote for three individuals in the ballot, based on newsworthy achievement in one or more of the following categories:
Profitability/shareholder value
Mergers and acquisitions (deals or integration)
Projects/capital investment
