Commentary: Dow CEO Andrew Liveris to receive 2015 ICIS Kavaler Award

The 2015 ICIS Kavaler Award, sponsored by The Chemists’ Club and in association with the Valence Group, will be awarded to Andrew Liveris, chairman, president and CEO of Dow Chemical, in recognition for outstanding achievement.

This unique global chemical industry award will be presented to Liveris at a black tie dinner ceremony on Tuesday, 27 October 2015, at the landmark main branch of the New York Public Library in New York City.

The distinguishing feature of this award is that the winner is selected by his/her peers in the ICIS Top 40 Power Players listing – a global ranking of the leaders making the greatest impact on the chemical industry.

“I am honoured to be selected as the recipient of the 2015 ICIS Kavaler Award and proud to join a distinguished legacy of honorees,” said Liveris. “This recognition belongs to all of Dow’s women and men – our Human Element at work. It acknowledges our proactive and consistent implementation of Dow’s market-driven strategy, as we continue to position our company for long-term value growth.”
