Corporate Vision Best Global Workplace NeuroInclusion Training Company 2026 Across industries, countless highly capable neurodivergent people are told daily that the way they communicate, concentrate, organise, regulate, or interact is wrong. At the same time, managers are seeking to genuinely support their people, but have never been taught the language, confidence, or tools to know how. This gap has created preventable distress, misunderstanding, and lost capability, but one Australian company is working hard to close it. NeuroEmpowerment Solutions helps organisations understand difference without stereotyping, support people without infantilising, and maintain accountability without ignoring context. Founder Aisling Smith told us more below. “Our purpose is not to make neurodivergent people better at surviving the workplace. It is to help workplaces become better at enabling human beings to thrive.” NeuroEmpowerment Solutions was established to change what happens after an organisation says, “We want to be neuroinclusive.” The working environment is becoming more aware of neurodiversity, and organisations are increasingly recognising the importance of creating inclusive environments for neurodivergent individuals. But awareness alone is simply not enough, particularly when nothing is done to change an individual’s experience within the workplace. Since its inception in 2025, NeuroEmpowerment Solutions has helped organisations across the corporate landscape transition from awareness to capability. It works across government, financial services, healthcare, legal services, transport, professional services, and education, with engagements including organisations such as IBM, ANZ, Telstra, KPMG, Victoria Legal Aid, local councils, and huge international cooperations together with Australian government departments and agencies. To these clients, NeuroEmpowerment Solutions delivers a comprehensive suite of solutions encompassing keynotes, workplace training, leadership development, employee and executive coaching, organisational consulting, digital learning, and practical tools. Its services address how leaders lead, how managers communicate, how teams learn, how people recruit, how adjustments are approached, how performance conversations are conducted, and how systems can remove unnecessary barriers that prevent good people from doing good work. What makes this work truly unique is the combination of lived experience, research-informed practice, behaviour change, and organisational reality that drives it. NeuroEmpowerment Solutions was founded by Aisling Smith, an autistic ADHDer and the parent of an autistic son with ADHD. Aisling has deliberately developed her approach with the aim of creating future workplaces that will accept and acknowledge neurodivergent employees, so that her son will enter a workplace that sees his brilliance before his difficulties. After her son was diagnosed as autistic at a very young age, Aisling spent several years attending early-intervention therapy with him. She learned strategies designed to support a neurodivergent child and was shocked to discover that these strategies also helped her to function as an adult. Wishing she’d learned these strategies much earlier in life, Aisling set out to share them with the world, turning this invaluable insight into the very foundation of NeuroEmpowerment Solutions. “My son’s diagnosis began this journey,” Aisling shared, “and understanding my own autism and ADHD transformed it. There was a time when I worked incredibly hard to hide many of the traits I now recognise as part of my neurodivergence. Today, those same experiences inform work I deliver to major organisations.” Before founding NeuroEmpowerment Solutions, Aisling’s neurodiversity consulting work contributed to organisational delivery of 101 sessions, reaching 3,441 participants across seven countries in 2023. She has spoken on international stages, coached and trained thousands of neurodivergent employees and their managers, and worked with organisations, governments, and leadership teams to help them better understand, support, and unlock neurodivergent talent at work. Through these years, Aisling observed that organisations need clear frameworks, practical language, evidence, and tools that work in environments with real deadlines, standards, and human complexity. This experience has shaped the ways in which the
Global Business Awards 2026 | 5 NeuroEmpowerment Solutions team designs for scale, access, and different workplace cultures, combining Aisling’s lived experience with her deep understanding of corporate and governmental needs to deliver solutions that help workplaces thrive. The results speak for themselves; across feedback records from live and online events, 99% of respondents described NeuroEmpowerment Solutions’ sessions as valuable, and 97% said that they would see Aisling again. In one recent Australian public-sector programme, 22 participant evaluations averaged 4.64 out of 5; every respondent rated the experience 4 or 5, and 86.4% made applying the learning a high or highest priority. “The moment I love most is the collective exhale when somebody suddenly says, ‘Oh. That is what has been happening’,” Aisling told us. “Shame drops, curiosity arrives, and, instead of another label. We have something practical we can do. Our purpose is not to make neurodivergent people better at surviving workplaces. It is to help workplaces become better at enabling human beings to thrive.” This process is not always smooth sailing; Aisling attributes the biggest challenge within the neurodivergence consulting sector to not be a lack of awareness, but rather the false finish line that awareness can create. Even with awareness of neurodiversity, organisations still run the risk of falling into two traps: treating a single introductory session as the completion of the work, and becoming so worried about saying the wrong thing that managers lose confidence in having necessary conversations about expectations, support, or performance. Neither of these outcomes benefit neurodivergent employees, and NeuroEmpowerment Solutions understands this. Setting out to make neuroinclusion practical, the team connects understanding to observable behaviour: clearer communication, better job and learning design, psychologically safer conversations, fairer recruitment, useful adjustments, and performance management with both context and accountability. “In one leadership programme, a manager realised during a breakout that a task she had sent to her team that morning had not landed clearly,” Aisling recalled. “She rewrote it using our Five C’s: context, clarity, curiosity, compassion, and consistency. The employee’s response changed immediately, and the manager said the experience would permanently change how she wrote tasks. That is what matters to us. The learning did not stay in the training room; it changed a real workplace interaction that day.” A secondary challenge for NeuroEmpowerment Solutions has been scale. As demand grows, the company recognises that high-quality specialist work cannot remain dependent on one person standing at the front of every room. The team is working to codify its approach through digital learning, practical NeuroHacks, facilitator capability, internal champion models, and original frameworks. These developments will help organisations build sustainable internal capability, rather than becoming dependent on an external consultant. Over the next twelve months, NeuroEmpowerment Solutions will focus on turning a powerful body of founder-led work into a scalable workplace neuroinclusion capability ecosystem. This will begin with the launch of the NeuroInclusion Champions pathway in 2027, designed to equip people inside organisations to carry practical neuroinclusive thinking into everyday decisions, conversations, and systems. This pathway will help organisations build credible internal capability that remains after a workshop or consulting engagement has ended. Alongside this, Aisling is writing a book with the working title of NeuroHacks, a practical book for neurodivergent individuals. Commissioned by Wiley, NeuroHacks brings together lived experience, research-informed explanation, and the tools Aisling has developed to help neurodivergent adults understand how their brains work, reduce unnecessary friction, and build lives and working practices around capability rather than shame. NeuroHacks takes the most useful conversations from the coaching room and places them in the hands of people who may never have access to specialist coaching or workplace support. It is supported by original intellectual property including the 7 Pillars of Workplace Neuroinclusion, the Neurodivergent Brain Decoder™, the NeuroEmpowerment Coaching Framework™, and an expanding suite of practical NeuroHacks. “My mission is to empower one million neurodivergent professionals,” Aisling stated. “That number often matters because every person empowered affects a team, a family, a workplace, and, often, another neurodivergent person who has not yet found the language to understand themselves. Scale, for me, is not about becoming less human. It is about bringing useful, human support within reach of more people.” We at Corporate Vision Magazine are delighted to recognise NeuroEmpowerment Solutions as the Best Global Workplace NeuroInclusion Training Company 2026. This success builds upon a 2024 Silver Stevie Award for Social Change Maker of the Year in the Disability category, Business Elite 40 Under 40 Australia recognition, and Corporate Vision’s 2025 Neurodiversity Trainer of the Year and Global Neurodiversity Coach of the Year Awards. In the wake of such success, Aisling concluded, “Being named Best Global Workplace NeuroInclusion Training Company 2026 is enormously meaningful because our goal has never been simply to deliver enjoyable training. We want the work to change what happens inside workplaces.” She continued, “The parts of me I once thought I needed to conceal have become part of how I help other people feel seen, understood, and capable. This award is not a finish line. It is a sign that a different way of seeing people is being heard, and it strengthens my determination to build a working world in which my son, and millions of people like him, never have to shrink themselves to belong.” Contact Details Contact: Aisling Smith Company: NeuroEmpowerment Solutions Web Address: www.neuroempowerment.com.au
Corporate Vision has introduced Sophia. Designed to support customers and colleagues alike, this in-house-developed room enables users to upload their own documents, data, and content to create a self-curated knowledge space that is precisely tailored to the requirements and expertise of the specific company. Leveraging this unique knowledge base, Sophia provides answers with detailed references to the documents used, ensuring maximum transparency, quick traceability, and verifiable results. What’s more, the platform has been expertly developed based on Mistral, is fully GDPR compliant, and aligned with the EU AI Act. It provides documented sources and bias checking, as well as deploying rigorous access management, continuous monitoring, and security updates to maintain compliance and data integrity. This industry-leading development was made possibly by the dedication of the DVKG team. The company currently runs a team of 44 employees and a network of more than 200 consular consultants world wide. Each of whom are granted extensive decision-making power in their roles. With full independence and responsibility, employees develop a comprehensive suite of skills that enable them to make decisions quickly and with more efficacy. As employees experience the weight of their own decisions, they are driven to provide an even higher quality of service. “This motivates them and leads to ongoing learning effects,” Julius explained. “Every employee knows that a decision can also be the wrong decision. This leads to a learning effect for everyone involved. The transparent handling of information and statistics promotes mutual trust..” Continuous improvement is a core strength of the DVKG. Alongside promoting the ongoing advancement of its internal team, the company also utilises a powerful international network of partners and experts for external support in technical and specialist areas such as legal and tax law topics. It leverages connections within the IT industry to stay abreast of new developments, issue specific requests for proposals to the market, and drive further development forward in the best interests of its clients. To ensure future successful developments akin to the launch of Sophia, the DVKG has built relationships with various contacts across different departments in the market. It listens to its customers, reflects upon their feedback, and develops suitable solutions in alignment with their changing Best Global Mobility Services Provider 2026 & Business Travel Compliance Excellence Award 2026 Leveraging over 90 years of combined experience in the consular services industry, the Deutsche Visa und Konsular Gesellschaft is on a mission to transform the world of consular processes for the travel and human resources market. The company has built a stellar reputation for simplifying consular application processes and providing support for obtaining visas, A1 certificates, and EU notifications. We heard more from Founder and CEO Dr. Julius Heintz below, as the Deutsche Visa und Konsular Gesellschaft is named in the Global Business Awards 2026. The story of the Deutsche Visa und Konsular Gesellschaft (DVKG) began in 2016, when Dr. Julius Heintz set out to digitize the tedious processes of consular administration. With this, the Founder aimed to leverage modern technology and streamlined workflows to reshape the consular service in a qualitative and cost-efficient manner whilst directly addressing the evolving needs of clients within this space. Driven by this vision, the DVKG team looks at application processes from an array of perspectives, considering the applicant, the traveler, the decision-maker, and the HR/TM user. It focuses on the “Moment of Truth”, which is when the user comes into contact with the DVKG. Then, the company implements targeted solutions built over a period of meticulous discussion and planning, developing each innovative process with the interests of its customers in mind. “The applicant has priority,” Julius told us. “If the applicant is satisfied with the process and our efforts do not lead to any further questions, the decision-maker will not receive any feedback, and the annoying administrative issue is off the table for them. Naturally, we are pleased to receive positive feedback, which we also receive in large numbers.” On a day-to-day basis, the DVKG supports applicants in navigating the extensive consular hurdles in a sustainable, secure, and cost-efficient manner, improving the application processes for visas, Certificates of Coverage (including A1), EU notifications under the Posted Workers Directive, legalisation, and workation. The team takes on the role of an administrative service provider, meticulously tailoring the administrative application process in alignment with the client’s unique specifications. Maintaining its position as the preferred partner to the global travel and HR industry requires the DVKG to keep a close eye on the evolving consular market. The company has observed ongoing inefficiencies across the sector, with teams losing up to a quarter of their working time searching for and interpreting guidelines. Documents are scattered across systems, and error rates are rising due to incorrect research, whilst companies lack evidence for compliant sources and use unverified tools that create risks under the EU AI Act. On a mission to mitigate the unnecessary stress, inefficiencies, and high costs associated with these pain points, the DVKG Deutsche Visa und Konsular Gesellschaft

Corporate Vision Best Telecom Expense Management Solutions Provider 2026 – USA Opening its doors in 1988, TeleBright Software Corporation has been helping organisations to manage and optimise their telecom expenses for close to four decades. Whether it is working with government agencies, healthcare organisations, private enterprises, or in other complex environments where telecom services can be difficult to manage, the company’s focus is simple: give clients better visibility, stronger control, and measurable value. Chet Thaker, its CEO, was on hand for more. Based in Rockville, Maryland, TeleBright Software Corporation offers a full range of telecom expense management (TEM) solutions, from telecom cost reduction and optimisation through to telecom expense management software. The company has all of the experience, market knowledge, and tech tools it needs to deliver solid results for its clients. With its software and services all being underpinned by its core values of being practical, transparent, accountable, and unfailingly ethical, TeleBright creates lasting client relationships. Behind these relationships are the experienced and handson TeleBright team, a group with diverse backgrounds across telecom, technology, operations, auditing, and client service. This leads to a collaborative, client-focused culture, and anyone who joins the growing team behind these telecom audit and optimisation services must be dependable, curious, willing to solve problems, and comfortable taking ownership for outcomes. Knowledge matters, but so do integrity, communication, and understanding. “We are in the ‘customer satisfaction’ business; and we do it with our software and services.” Combining decades of telecom experience with practical technology and measurable results, TeleBright is renowned for the likes of its Telecom Savings as a Service (TSaaS™) programme for telecom audit and optimisation, which was designed to identify savings through invoice analysis, usage review, benchmarking, and contract optimisation. Complementing the analysis are three competing quotes for services for the client to choose, demonstrating its commitment to improving the bottom line for its clients. Other notable provisions offered by TeleBright include ManageRight™ for telecom and utility expense management, AssetRight™ for asset management, and PayRight™ for bill payment administration, where the reporting and workflows are adapted to a client’s unique requirements. These solutions allow the team to help their clients gain observability and control costs, as well as to make better long-term decisions. Given that today’s telecom environments are becoming increasingly complex as organisations begin to manage multiple carriers, mobility services, cloud-based communications, contracts, invoices, and changing technologies, the challenge clients face is often not a lack of a data, but a lack of understanding of how that data can be used effectively. Agentic AI has brought with it a host of new global challenges, even if these are not traditional telecom expenses, and TeleBright is continuing to find new ways to benefit from this technology. Chet told us: “Utilising AI in our systems to help achieve observability is a challenge that we are thrilled to tackle. We address this by combining experienced telecom professionals with our own technology, detailed auditing, benchmarking, reporting, and ongoing optimisation. Over the next year, we plan to continue strengthening our technology and reporting capabilities while expanding the ways clients can manage telecom expenses, assets, invoices, payments, and operational information in one environment, with AI-support tools built in.” Beyond this, TeleBright is continuing to explore new opportunities with commercial businesses in search of greater visibility and control across their increasingly complex telecom operations, as well as delivering its telecom expense management for government agencies. For clients in both of these areas, the aim is not to provide them with technology for the sake of having it, but to give them information that is more useful and more actionable. Ultimately, this ties into one of the clearest trends defining the sector at present, which is the growing need for observability that is being experienced as telecom environments become more fragmented and technology evolves faster. In the wake of this, Chet spoke about how organisations increasingly want to understand what they have, what they are paying for, what they are actually using, and where they can make real improvements. By genuinely improving control, efficiency, and decision making, as well as consistently delivering savings of between 15% and 30% on average across all organisations of all sizes, TeleBright Software Corporation is aligned with the needs of its clients and has its finger on the pulse of the wider telecommunications industry. It is thanks to this unique combination that we are thrilled to recognise it as the Best Telecom Expense Management Solutions Provider 2026 – USA as part of this year’s Global Business Awards.

Global Business Awards 2026 | 9 Answering the call of retailers and consumers in Australia and all over the world, FMCG International Pty Ltd fills gaps in the household cleaning market through its world-first innovations, especially those relating to wet wipes and toilet-cleaning devices. The company not only supplies these products through a network present in every corner of the world map, it also manufactures them at its exclusive and accredited factories. FMCG’s success in this space comes down to its mix of deep industry knowledge and a proactive approach to its relationships with customers. Remarkably, 80% of the company’s customers have been with it now for 20 years or more, with this group comprising everything from medium-sized companies to much bigger organisations. Standout names from across this group include Selleys, Henkel, Reckitt Benckiser, and Clorox. Spanning such a big operation and seeking to maintain an excellent product supply and the highest standards across it, FMCG is anything but a typical 9–5 organisation. As Wayne told us: “We operate globally and always provide the fastest and most efficient responses to our customers. This often means working irregular hours seven days a week.” For FMCG, the number of hours worked is not the focus. Rather, it is the quality of the work being done during this period, and the impact this has on both its customers and the supply chain. Preserving this level of quality is more important than ever, given the household cleaning market today is saturated by retailer-own brands at one end of the scale and multinational organisations at the other. This has seen small to medium-sized companies squeezed from supermarket shelves, and made it difficult for manufacturers to introduce new and truly innovative products into the lives of retail customers. Because FMCG has built its brand by operating at the intersection of innovation and production, and bringing these groundbreaking ideas to the market as effectively as possible, it is continuing to forge collaborations with new and existing distribution partners and fighting to get its products on shelves all over the world. Innovation continues to define its efforts, seen recently through its latest round of developments. At the centre of is its new product development (NPD) is the introduction of 100% biodegradable wet wipes for kitchens and other such services, with every wipe having a powerful, bubbled, non-scratch surface. This achieves a much higher standard of cleaning than customers get from a typical wet wipe, with the use of biodegradable materials seeing cleaning power increased as the need for harmful chemicals decreases – a clear innovation. However, this is not all. Wayne explained: “FMCG is in the process of introducing world-first cageless rim block that will have superior cleaning performance and 90% less plastic compared with existing toilet rim block products.” This will sit alongside other similar Spearheaded by CEO Wayne Burgis, a leading entrepreneur and new product innovator in the world of household cleaning, FMCG International Pty Ltd is a highly experienced and multifaceted global organisation. Like its CEO, the company’s specialty lies in its reliable and forward-thinking household cleaning products, with the company having a number of best-in-class supplier awards under its belt. We caught up with Wayne for more on the innovation FMCG stands for on the back of its recognition in this year’s edition of the Global Business Awards. Best Household Cleaning Product Innovation Company 2026 products in its range, including the first cistern to block to kill 99.9% of germs, the first rim block to feature a rotating water mill device with 24/7 fragrance, and the first plastic squeezable pen to contain toilet cleaning gel for improved accuracy. These are just some of the pioneering household cleaning products the company has introduced, with many of these already shipping through its expansive distributor network. Looking ahead, the detailed knowledge FMCG International has of this sector, which again stems from the decades of experience that Wayne himself brings to the table, means the company is well aware of the trends and developments impacting this space. FMCG is looking to take these on board, utilising them to shape its NPD activity. A leading household cleaning NPD and supply company, FMCG International Pty Ltd has solidified itself as a true innovator in the field of unique cleaning products since it opened its doors back in 2001. On this, its 25th anniversary, we are delighted to recognise its ongoing commitment to excellence by naming FMCG the Best Household Cleaning Product Innovation Company in the esteemed Global Business Awards 2026.

Corporate Vision Anchoring its operations in Antwerp, Belgium, Colossus Marine strives to deliver modern, innovative, and sustainable maritime solutions to shipping companies and vessel managers from the North Sea to the South China Sea. Keeping the company afloat are the team of visionary experts behind it, a small group dedicated to transforming the maritime industry by leveraging their decades of combined experience. This experience includes providing marine services and solutions to some of the world’s largest, most complex shipping fleets. It is thanks to this team that Colossus Marine is widely recognised for its reliability, technical depth, and passion for sustainable progress in the marine environment, something reflected further through the company’s core values of trust, quality, responsiveness, innovation, and environmental responsibility. These converge into a motto, ‘trust in every nautical mile’, which reflects exactly what Colossus Marine stands for: being a dependable partner to its customers wherever their vessels operate. Backing up this motto are the impressive results this global marine services and solutions provider has already achieved in its short time serving this space. For example, in its first year, Colossus Marine supported more than 100 vessels, garnering an impressive 70–80% RFQ-to-order conversion rate. As a young company in an established and highly competitive industry, these figures will help it to stand out, build market credibility, and maintain a consistent level of quality whilst scaling, which are currently its main challenges. It overcomes them simply by staying close to its customers, understanding their real operational needs, and responding quickly with practical solutions. Mahasweta explained: “We carefully select reliable partners and suppliers, maintain high service standards, and continuously develop our technical knowledge and capabilities.” By focusing on these areas, Colossus Marine hopes to grow through energy and zeal, and ultimately serve the shipping industry even better than it has this past year. Of course, the waters ahead will not always be calm, and the state of current geo-political relations means the shipping industry as a whole is having to navigate some of the most difficult hurdles it has faced in decades. This is not all, as changing standards and regulation shifts make staying up to date vital for those seeking to remain compliant. To this end, Colossus Marine has its own technical and research arm, and close ties to various news and publishing outlets to keep it aligned with the current developments shaping the space. Taking charge of its own destiny, the future for Colossus Marine will see it introduce various new avenues into the business to better support the shipping fraternity, with announcements to come through its social media pages, especially Instagram and LinkedIn.

GS ml o ablal lBBuussi ni neessssAAwwaar dr dss22002236| |1 11 1 Dubai launched VARA, the world’s first dedicated virtual assets regulator, in March 2022, weeks before Terra collapsed and months before FTX. It looked like terrible timing. Irina stated: “It was the best thing that could have happened. VARA wrote its rulebook while watching every failure mode play out live.” The UAE kept building: VARA in Dubai, the FSRA in Abu Dhabi Global Market, the DFSA in the DIFC, the Central Bank for stablecoins and, from January 2026, the federal Capital Market Authority with a dedicated federal virtual assets regime. Ask what the UAE got most right, and Irina doesn’t name a token. She names a land registry. Since 2025, Dubai Land Department title deeds for tokenized property have recorded the owner as “Tokenholder”, linked to a digital wallet. The pilot drew investors from more than 50 nationalities, and in February 2026 a regulated secondary market opened. In August, CoinDesk published research by Irina and her team tracking every disclosed crypto funding round in the first half of 2026: US$11.2 billion across 377 rounds, with only about 3% going to DeFi. Nearly all the rest went into businesses that need a regulatory licence to operate. Irina expects M&A to follow, with buyers acquiring licences, banking relationships and regulatory history rather than applying from scratch. Her firm tracks the whole market through the NeosLegal UAE VASP Licence Tracker, the first consolidated public database of licences across all five regulators. NeosLegal stands as the UAE’s first crypto-native law firm, now with ten years in operation and decades of combined experience behind it. Its commitment to excellence has helped it to evolve over the years, with Irina and her team remaining ever-devoted to their accolade-worthy craft. Contact: Irina Heaver, Founder Company: NeosLegal Website: https://neoslegal.co/ Irina Heaver remembers when the hardest part of her job was explaining to regulators and institutions what Bitcoin was. “They weren’t hostile. They just didn’t know the risks,” she said. “Nobody had told them what this was, so the safe answer was to ban any Bitcoin or crypto activity. The job wasn’t arguing with regulators. It was explaining the thing to them before anyone else did.” Nearly a decade later, the UAE has five virtual asset regimes, counts 110 licensed entities, and records property ownership against token holders’ wallets. In 2025 alone, transactions through entities licensed by Dubai’s Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority reached nearly US$700 billion. Irina, the UAE crypto lawyer and the founder of NeosLegal, has advised the industry since 2016 and has lived in the UAE since 2008. Irina trained in law in Australia, where she earned a Juris Doctor, she spent 13 years as an international oil and gas lawyer. She negotiated deals across the Middle East, Africa, and Central Asia, including a US$11 billion gas project involving the Government of Turkmenistan, Bank of China and Mubadala. It was unusual training for a crypto lawyer, and she credits it with almost everything about how she works. Irina commented: “When your counterparty is a government, you learn very quickly that they are not trying to stop the deal. They are trying to work out who carries the risk if it goes wrong. Most people in crypto spent years treating regulators as the enemy. I’d spent a career on the other side of that table, treating regulators as business counterparties.” Irina became interested in Bitcoin around 2011. In 2016 she left the corporate world, where she was general counsel at one of the largest shipping groups in the world, and founded NeosLegal. To take the challenge further, she also co-founded a crypto exchange, which taught her what a rulebook looks like once someone has to turn it into banking, custody, staffing and operating procedures. The turning point came in 2018, when Uzbekistan invited her to advise on crypto policy and legislation at a time when almost no government had a framework to copy. “Writing rules is a completely different thing from critiquing them, because every sentence you write, somebody has to work under,” Irina added. She came back reading rulebooks differently. Irina shared: “I stopped seeing a list of requirements. I saw a list of fears. Every provision is there because someone in that building was worried about one specific failure. If you can name the fear, you can answer it.” She has since advised several more governments on virtual asset policy, including the UAE, and worked on establishing a dedicated commercial free zone for Web3 businesses. After spending 13 years negotiating oil and gas deals with governments, Irina Heaver walked away to practice a kind of law that did not yet exist.

Corporate Vision Best Commercial Window Company 2026 – Australia EBSA Pty Ltd is an Australian window company specialising in window automation, natural ventilation, and smoke ventilation systems. EBSA works in a range of commercial and public-sector environments, collaborating with architects, consultants, builders, manufacturers, and building owners through its full-service approach. Named Best Commercial Window Company 2026 – Australia, Chris Guy, its director, told us more about EBSA and what makes it a trusted partner for commercial projects. EBSA Pty Ltd is an Australian-owned company renowned for bringing performance-driven solutions to commercial buildings. Over the years, the company has been involved in numerous award-winning projects, with buildings like 123 Albert Street netting the company and its partners acclaim on both a national and international scale. EBSA’s involvement in a project can begin during the design and specification phase, and continues to supply, installation, and even ongoing maintenance afterwards, thus highlighting its scope. Chris explained: “A big part of what we do is making sure the complete system works properly, rather than simply supplying individual components.” EBSA ensures this by doing what it says it will, being technically competent, using quality products, and standing behind what it supplies. These are the values at the heart of the company, and they are underpinned by the shared belief that, if there is a better way to do something, its team must be prepared to investigate, test it, and make those improvements themselves. As for the team behind some of the best window automation, natural ventilation, and smoke ventilation systems in Australia, they are a small, specialist group, meaning everyone has an important role to play. The abundance of specialist knowledge that exists within the business is something EBSA is keen to share, across both its current team and new starters. This is the foundation of a culture that prioritises learning and continuous evolution, something that has always been a major part of EBSA’s development and which continues to this day. Working in an industry that is a lot more technical than people first realise, EBSA encounters a number of challenges it must navigate, especially concerning commercial window automation, which is something often left until quite late on in the design process. Chris told us: “A motorised window is not simply a window with a motor attached to it. Window selection, actuator selection, controls, power supplies, cabling, building interfaces, access, weather performance, and smoke-control requirements all need to work together.” If these decisions are left too late, it can lead to unnecessary compromises during the construction phase, which its clients and partners are always keen to avoid. This is why EBSA’s approach hinges on getting involved as early as possible, working alongside other projects teams to keep things running smoothly from the beginning. The rigorous engineering and testing behind every solution further streamlines this process, as it sees any problems ironed out in the early stages, rather than at a point where time is of the essence. Ultimately, this is where EBSA provides real value, as it takes window automation – which again is a specialist building system – and covers all the engineering that goes into a reliably automated window. This means all of the systems and components which will play a massive part in how that window will perform over the course of its life. By rigorously assessing all of these, and not simply supplying a box of components and walking away, EBSA makes commercial buildings look great and perform better, hence its ongoing acclaim. Even after many years in this industry, Chris and the team are still learning and still looking for ways to make their systems even better. The next 12 months remain rooted in product development, testing, and improving these offerings, with active research and development projects currently ongoing across its louvre systems and window automation solutions. As building automation becomes sophisticated, there is also the recognition that systems offering better control, information, and support are becoming increasingly sought after. In closing, and reflecting on EBSA Pty Ltd being celebrated in this edition of the Global Business Awards, Guy commented: “If an existing solution works well, there is no reason to change it for the sake of change. But where we see an opportunity to improve performance, reliability, controls, installation or servicing, we are prepared to invest in developing and testing it. That is probably the best description of how EBSA operates – keep learning, keep testing, and keep improving.” More on the results this yields can be seen below.

Global Business Awards 2026 | 13 The story of Le Manoir Chamberland began in 2013, when couple Ross Pattee and Dominique Prmieau first laid eyes on an old presbytery that belonged to the church. A year later, when they returned to Montebello, they were delighted to see that it was still for sale. Falling in love with it all over again,, they began imagining the possibilities of the space, which was beautiful even in its dilapidated state. Originally built in 1938 by Monsignor Chamberland, the priest who oversaw the region surrounding Montebello, the presbytery remained with the church for many years, before it was forced to sell it to raise funds to repair the church. Before Ross and Dominique came across it, it had been rented out for around two decades, and was in a desperate state of disrepair. Roof repair, stonework restoration, and collapsed walls and ceilings were just the beginning of what the couple had to manage to restore the space to its former glory. Renovating a century-old building like this is challenging enough already, but with the couple looking to transform it into a boutique luxury hotel, it was even more of a challenge than it might otherwise have been. They carried out a complete upgrade of the electric and plumbing systems, as well as building a pool and a garden sanctuary. Eight luxury guest rooms were then fitted; equipped with luxury Italian showers and jacuzzi bathtubs. Today, Le Manoir Chamberland is known for its charming atmosphere, boutique rooms, Gardener’s house, distinctive architecture, and beautiful grounds, as well as an exquisite restaurant and the provision of a wellness experience. The hotel, which is a nod to the Monsignor Chamberland who constructed the building, boasts a 4.5-star rating, and is the only pet-free, adultsonly hotel situated in the historic village of Montebello. It upholds its status as a boutique luxury hotel at every turn, from spoiling its guests with fine linen and exquisite robes to serving them a gourmet three-course breakfast on white tablecloths. The fact that Le Manoir Chamberland is such an intimate location adds to the luxury service, with Ross, Dominique, and the team all able to treat every guest and their rooms with the care and attention they deserve. The rooms themselves reflect the quality service this boutique hotel stands for, and all eight (plus the Gardener’s house) offer guests everything from a mini fridge and a Nespresso coffee machine to a king- or queen-sized bed adorned with the finest Italian sheets. Along with the Italian showers and jacuzzi baths, some bathrooms also boast double sinks and heated floors, elevating the experience. Complimentary Wi-Fi also comes as standard, along with a selection of chilled non-alcoholic drinks. Le Manoir Chamberland’s aforementioned restaurant again continues the thread of boutique luxury, with its small kitchen team working in harmony with the seasons to offer a menu that changes every day. A reservation is essential for those looking to sample the freshest ingredients served as part of the personalised A boutique hotel in the heart of Montebello, Quebec, Canada, Le Manoir Chamberland is an intimate destination where history meets hospitality.
