September deadline for brightest female corporate stars

-

THIS YEAR’S Business Women Scotland awards have just opened and entries must be submitted by 3 September. The online awards ceremony will be held on 19 November.

The themes this year have expanded to include collaborat­ion and sustainabi­lity and entires are sought from businesswo­men in start-ups and establishe­d businesses.

Lynne Kennedy, MBE, founder of Business Women Scotland, said:

“We want to showcase some of the most enterprisi­ng and successful women from around Scotland women who've had the courage to follow their dreams, whether that be starting their own business, making it to the top in their career, or using their expertise and knowledge to help other women be the best they can be.

“We have always wanted to shine a light on the great work women are doing across Scotland while being role models for the next generation.”

Last year's Business Woman of the Year Award winner, Sarra Beajoui of SmartPA, said: “One of the aspects of SmartPA's growth I'm immensely proud of is that, in addition to building a company that provides impactful support services to thousands of businesses of all sizes in over 15 countries, we've also empowered thousands of females globally to start their own businesses, get back to work and find a career where they're rewarded and valued.”

She added it was lovely to have her work recognised.
