George Town, Cayman Islands, 17 March 2025
The Cayman Islands Institute of Professional Accountants (CIIPA) will hold its 17th
Annual Awards Gala on Saturday, 27 Sept. at the Kimpton Seafire Resort + Spa, the
institute announced. The event recognises Caymanians and permanent residents who
have reached academic milestones in their accounting careers as well as those who
have made a significant impact on the profession in the Cayman Islands.
Twenty honourees were recognised for having earned their bachelor’s degree, master’s
degree and/or professional qualification last year. CIIPA also presents awards to
recognise a Rising Star within the profession, an Outstanding Member of CIIPA, and a
Pioneer for making a lasting impact in the Cayman Islands.
“The annual Awards Gala is one of my favourite events of the year,” CIIPA Chief
Executive Officer Sheree Ebanks said. “It’s so inspiring to see and recognise the
achievements of the next generation of accounting leaders and celebrate those who
have contributed to the profession. It’s a time to reflect on how far we’ve come and to
get excited about the future.”
With the announcement of the Gala date, CIIPA also opened its call for honourees and
special awards nominations.
