Kawal Preet, Executive Vice President of Planning, Engineering, and Transformation at FedEx and former President of the Asia Pacific region, has been named to Fortune magazine’s “2025 Most Powerful Women in Business: Asia” list.

Ang Khoon Fong, CEO of Fortune Asia, said: "The ‘2025 Most Powerful Women in Business: Asia’ list showcases diverse forces—from the most influential boards in the region to leaders in culture, sports, and public life. Our honorees continue to lead the Asian development agenda and shape its future. Together they represent the depth, breadth, and creativity of today’s most influential women in Asia."
