Her lifelong contribution to advancing packaging innovation, building a global business from the ground up and championing women in manufacturing is truly inspiring. Nadia’s work reflects everything this award was created to honour—visionary leadership, community contribution and a legacy that will influence generations to come."

Since co-founding TNA Solutions in 1982 with her husband, Alf Taylor, Nadia has helped revolutionise food packaging through groundbreaking technologies like the tna robag®—the world’s first rotary, high-speed vertical form-fill-seal system. Today, TNA operates in over 130 countries, with more than 16,000 systems installed, delivering complete processing and packaging line solutions across the food manufacturing industry.

Beyond her business achievements, Nadia has been a passionate advocate for social justice and equal opportunities. Through the Nadia and Alf Taylor Foundation, she has spearheaded philanthropic initiatives supporting children’s education, creating sustainable livelihoods for women, driving vocational training and empowerment in disadvantaged communities across 46 countries from Africa to Asia Pacific. Within TNA, she has fostered a culture of inclusion and meritocracy, empowering women to thrive in traditionally male-dominated sectors.
