PepsiCo's India-born Chairman and CEO Indra Nooyi will be honored with the 2018 Asia Game Changer of the Year award by global cultural organization Asia Society.
Nooyi has been selected in "recognition of her pioneering business achievements, humanitarian record, and advocacy for women and girls".
She recently announced that she would be stepping down as PepsiCo's CEO after 12 years.
The 2018 Asia Game Changer Awards will be given in October to individuals and institutions who have broken barriers, defined courage, worked miracles, and in turn inspired their fellow citizens of the world.
