SimplyCast is marking a new milestone in its history, thanks to its President and CEO. SimplyCast is jubilant in announcing that President and CEO Saeed El-Darahali has been selected as one of Atlantic Canada’s Top 50 CEOs for the fifth consecutive year since 2020. This award honors excellence among Atlantic Canada’s enterprising business leaders who emphasize giving back to their communities while making advancements in their given industries. With this selection, Saeed is also being inducted into the Atlantic Business Magazine’s Hall of Fame.
Since 1999, Atlantic Business Magazine has dedicated one issue every year to the recognition and celebration of outstanding corporate leadership in Atlantic Canada. CEOs selected as Atlantic Canada’s Top 50 will be featured in the special May/June 2024 Top 50 Issue and online at the Atlantic Business Magazine. Those selected were honored at an annual awards gala on May 9, 2024, at the Delta St. John’s Hotel & Conference Centre.
El-Darahali said, “Entering the Hall of Fame alongside such esteemed and accomplished individuals is a profound experience. I credit much of this honor to the exceptional team at SimplyCast, whose dedication and innovation have propelled our growth. Their ideas and passion have been instrumental in shaping SimplyCast into what it is today. Witnessing their progress alongside the company has been a privilege. I extend my gratitude to Atlantic Business Magazine for consistently acknowledging our achievements over the years.”
During the Annual Awards Gala, the Top 50 CEOs were awarded, as well as a Presentation of Atlantic Canada Industry Builder, 2024 Hall of Fame Inductions, Stewart McKelvey Innovator of the Year and CEO of the Year.
This achievement for SimplyCast and El-Darahali continues to show the core values and guiding principles of the organization as it expands on its accolades, awards, and accomplishments.
