2024 CED Distinguished Leadership Awards Celebration

For more than a quarter century, the CED Distinguished Leadership Awards have been honoring business leaders and their companies who exemplify CED’s mission by answering the call for corporate citizenship and demonstrating a strong commitment to public policy in the nation’s interests.

We hope you can join us virtually for this special celebration, featuring remarks from exemplary executives and performances by the Northwell Health Nurse Choir. 

This year's celebration pays special tribute to business leaders and their companies who have demonstrated exceptional leadership in very challenging times and have helped our nation and the communities where they operate navigate the many challenges before us, including: advancing equal opportunity during a time of national economic uncertainty, building a more civil and just society, and upholding a rules-based international order.
