The Atlantic Business Magazine’s Top 50 CEO Awards are judged according to the corporate, community, and industry involvement of the CEO. Other factors that go into the judging are things like the company’s growth in recent years and their response to various managerial changes.

“In a year where organizations from all sectors have been hit so hard, it is humbling to be named a Top 50 CEO. It is not an easy task as I have personally heard of many sad stories from entrepreneurs of all stripes on what has happened with their businesses.” says Kutty. He adds, “We are thankful to have the support of our clients, our team members and of course a brilliant community that raises us up continually”. This is the third time that Ashwin has been honoured with this distinction.

Advertising has also had a rough go of it this year. That said, WeUsThem continues to be a powerhouse as a full-service advertising agency serving clients locally, nationally, and globally.  From marketing, to advertising, and communications, they have been recognized internationally and are the only such agency on the east coast.

“Ashwin is a true leader to be reckoned with and it is his steadfast approach that has seen us steady even through this COVID year.” says Faten Alshazly, Principal and CCO at WeUsThem. “He is incredibly deserving of this honour and is a unique strategic thinker and partner for our clients and our agency.”

Atlantic Business Magazine’s Top 50 CEO Awards is Atlantic Canada’s premiere business recognition event and this year has been no different in identifying true leaders that are making a difference in their businesses and the communities they live in.
