Santosh Varghese: Vice President, Toshiba Gulf FZE
"Thank You Suresh for
conducting an exemplary event !! The highlights were the creative taglines for each award, it
was stunning ...
Look forward to Kioxia ExceLENS Awards
Edition 4.0 next year with many more innovative ideas.
Thanks to your team at ISD Global, they

"The ExceLENS Awards allows the opportunity for photography enthusiasts to celebrate their passion and share their most cherished photos to a larger community. The concept of the ExceLENS Awards provides a safe and supportive environment for photographers to unite their talent with a competitive edge. As a participant one can feel the synergy throughout the event and the shared love and 'ExceLENS" in photography."
Tarek AbdelRahman, General Manager & Regional Head, Nikon
"I was delighted to be
invited to the third edition of the ExceLens Awards and I am seriously impressed with the growing number and
quality of submissions.
Together with the increasing scale of the event preparation and execution, I will not be
surprised to see ExceLens Awards being
one of the prime and highly respected photography & videography competitions in the GCC region
and beyond."
Julius Yls, Art Technologist & Educator
"ExceLens Awards Edition 3.0, the
photography award ceremony conceptualised and organized by branding and creative agency ISD Global in Dubai, was a magnificent event
celebrating photography's art and skill. The ceremony's topic underscores the importance of
embracing emerging technologies, such as NFTs, Metaverse, and Artificial Intelligence, to
enhance the art of photography and ensure its continued relevance in the future.
With its state-of-the-art facilities and immersive digital displays, the TODA (Theatre of Digital Art) where the
awards ceremony was held, provides an unparalleled experience for attendees. It was a true
testament to the power of photography in capturing the essence of a moment and telling a story
through a single image.
Overall, ExceLens Awards Edition 3.0
was a great success, a grand celebration of the rich cultural heritage of photography in the
digital age, and a beacon of hope for the future of the art form."
Stevi Lowmass, Founder & CEO, The Camel Soap Factory
"It was my pleasure to be invited to present an award at the ExceLENS Awards 2023 in March. It was a real joy to see so many gifted content creators, many of whom were amateurs, recognised for some amazing works of art. It would be great to see awards like this become a key fixture in the Dubai calendar."
Raj Nambiar, Academic Director, University of Bolton | Northwood University
"I had the opportunity to attend the Awards Ceremony for the ExceLENS Awards at the Theatre of Digital Art (TODA) and it was heartening to see fantastic talent being showcased across 15 diverse categories. The TODA was personal and almost the perfect setting bringing together contestants, supporters & even some well-wishers and all attendees had a taste of what was to come with the photographs being showcased in an art gallery type of setting across the foyer of the TODA. Some of the photographs, at least for a novice like me, were mind blowing in terms of the thought process & the execution, oftentimes with something as ubiquitous as the camera phone. This, my 2nd ExceLENS Awards was everything that I expected and more and Thank you ISD Global for showcasing such a brilliant event. Can’t wait for the next edition which given the scale can only be bigger & better."
Faisal Shabanali, Marketing Head, City Walk

Kishore Das, Nominee
ExceLENS Awards is a great platform to recognize talents in the Photography domain. The expert and experienced judges have successfully identified the right talents based on pure photographic skills. The award function was also organized so seamlessly. Even if I joined the award function online, I didn't feel like not being physically present there as it was very engaging. We even experienced some extracurricular activities (music) during the event which was a sweet surprise. I wish 'ExceLENS Awards' all the best for the future and look forward to the next event for active participation from my side.
