The International Association of Top Professionals (IAOTP) is thrilled to announce that Nisha Sadekar, CEO & President of PGD Global, has been selected as Top Entrepreneur of the Year in the Golf Industry for her outstanding leadership, dedication, and commitment to bringing more diversity and inclusion to the game of golf. Sadekar is being celebrated for her work to pave the way forward to make golf more equitable and accessible for those that have historically been excluded from the game. She has demonstrated success as a results-driven leader, talented entrepreneur, former touring professional golfer, event producer and industry expert who hosts golf tournaments and entertainment events across the United States. 


“We are honored to have Ms. Sadekar as part of our IAOTP family,” said Stephanie Cirami, President of IAOTP. “She is brilliant at what she does, has a unique understanding of the sport and has tremendous foresight for entertainment and golf experiences. We know she will be an amazing asset to our network of professionals. We are looking forward to meeting her at the Annual Awards Gala this year.”

These special honorees are distinguished based on their professional accomplishments, academic achievements, leadership abilities, other affiliations, and contributions to their communities. All honorees are invited to attend the IAOTP’s annual awards gala at the end of this year for a night to honor their achievements.   www.iaotp.com/award-gala
