The World Economic Forum has named a Dominican government official as one of its 250 young global leaders. The annual distinction recognizes the top 250 young leaders from around the world for their professional accomplishments, their commitment to society and their potential for contributing to shaping the world's future. Andres Vanderhorst Alvarez, executive director of the National Competitiveness Council, is acknowledged for being instrumental in moving competitiveness from a conceptual design to an internationally-funded program and then to an established government agency headed by the President of the Dominican Republic. He was chosen from a pool of over 4,000 candidates from 70 countries. The jury is made up of 34 media leaders, including Marjorie Scardino, Chief Executive, Pearson, United Kingdom; Arthur Sulzberger, Chairman and Publisher, The New York Times, USA; Tom Glocer, Chief Executive Officer, Reuters, United Kingdom; and Hisashi Hieda, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Fuji Television Network, Japan.
