Woman Who AWARDS

Woman Who creates inspirational women in business role models to inspire others.

The Woman Who Achieves Awards (10th Anniversary) take place on Friday 9th May 2025

(Entries open on 1st January 2025)

 

The Woman Who Achieves Awards and the Woman Who Solopreneur Awards recognise and celebrate the achievements of Women in Business. Woman Who encourages women in business to recognise their achievements, celebrate their successes, and inspire others by becoming role models.

Woman Who Awards are a little different. If you’ve never entered Awards before, had a bad Awards experience, or simply want to gain visibility, then embark on your Woman Who journey and enter these Awards. First, there are no categories. This means every entrant can be their unique self and you don’t have to pigeon hole yourself into rigid criteria. There is also a two-stage independent judging process including an online interview.

The Woman Who Achieves Awards take place every Spring. The Woman Who Solopreneur Awards take place every Autumn. Check the key dates for each of the awards

I Am A Man Who Award 2025

 

You may have noticed several men standing on the Woman Who stages over the years and that’s because they are very welcome at the Awards Lunch. Additionally, many men contribute is so many ways to the achievements of women in business and that’s how the ‘I Am A Man Who’ Award was borne.

If you know a man who supports women in business and is worthy of an award win, just get in touch to tell us about him, how he supports women in business, his name and contact details, and why you’ve nominated him.

Finalists and the winner of this Award are Judged by the Woman Who team and announced on the day of the Awards Lunch. There are no interviews.

CONTACT: Emma Hewitt, Business Awards Adviser

Emma‘s help and guidance has been invaluable – I’ve won two awards, including a Woman Who Soloprenuer Award – as a result of her input!

Having a working document for future award entries has saved me hours of time and is a really valuable business asset.

Emma takes time and care in reading through and commenting on my content, as well as pointing me in the right direction as to what should go where. She is also very willing to give follow up advice and was almost as excited as me when I won! I feel very lucky to have her in my extended business team.

WOMAN WHO ACHEIVES

CELEBRATION & RECOGNITION

“I created these Awards to address all the bad experiences I’d had when I’d entered Awards previously. Think penguin suits, being ignored if you’re not a winner and then absolutely nothing after, not even a photo with my certificate to savour.

So I developed something new, an opportunity for women in business (and men too) to come together to network, build relationships, and collaborate, and a place where everyone who enters who is in the room is recognised and celebrated.

Everyone gets their moment on stage and that all-important photo.”
