CHAMBER NEWS


Chamber reveals its Enterprising Women shortlist


Finalists have been announced in the annual quest to find the most successful and inspirational business women in the East Midlands. The top 35 candidates have been


picked from dozens of nominations for this year’s Enterprising Women awards. The winners will be announced at a gala dinner on International Women’s Day, 8 March, at Derbyshire County Cricket Club, Derby. There are seven awards to be won


this year: Business Woman of the Year (sponsored by Pick Everard), the Social Commitment award (Hastings Direct), Apprentice of the Year (Derby College), Female Employee of the Year (Smallman and Sons), Female Entrepreneur of the Year (Leicester Racecourse), Team of the Year (Leicester Tigers) and Small Business of the Year (The Belmont Hotel). Co-Chair of Enterprising Women,


Eileen Richards, founder of ER Recruitment, Leicester, and a member of the Board of Directors at the Chamber, said: “Once again, the standard of entries has been very high this year. “I think there is a real hunger


among women in the business community to be recognised for


their achievements and these awards are one of the best ways to achieve that recognition.” Co-Chair Jean Mountain, a Past


President at the Chamber, said: “By highlighting their contribution and telling their stories, hopefully we can inspire other women to pursue their business dream.” Duncan Green, Managing Partner


at Pick Everard, said: “Pick Everard is delighted to be the headline sponsor again of the Enterprising Women Awards, which is a fantastic opportunity to celebrate the success of women. “Like a number of industries,


ours is already held back by a skills shortage and would benefit substantially from more females developing a career in the sector. We’re proactively working to readdress the balance, from providing STEM ambassadors at schools to promoting nationally the role of women in engineering and construction.” Tickets for the Enterprising


Women awards gala dinner are £55+VAT or £500+VAT for a table of ten.

ENTERPRISING WOMEN IS INDEBTED TO THE SUPPORT OF ITS VALUED SPONSORS


“We truly have an excellent partnership with our sponsors, which are recognised as some of the East Midlands’ leading businesses. Without their partnership these awards would not be possible and we are delighted to welcome them back for another year to acknowledge our thriving finalists. “The Enterprising Women awards are all about


recognising and rewarding women in the workplace who are leading the way within our regional economy while balancing external commitments. With the high calibre of nominations received we are very much looking forward to a triumphant ceremony.”
