Currently, WORLDCOB has more than 3500 members worldwide from more than 130 countries.

The selection process is broad where companies can be selected or can apply based on achievements. After the selection process, there are two phases that follow. The first phase consists of the submission of the most successful projects, business development, and organization, as well as the submission of direct contact with local authorities who can confirm the validity of achievements. The second phase presents a thorough interview with WORLDCOB representatives where they examine the company’s portfolio and ask the most important questions in regard to operations and conduct of business. We would like to thank Dubai Police and the University of Birmingham, for giving amazing feedback and helping us win this prestigious reward.

This year ceremonies are scheduled to happen at Astana Kazakhstan end of May, at Lisbon Portugal in August, and at Anaheim California, USA.
