UK: Triodos launches award for women
"If youre a woman whos running an enterprise that makes a difference, I urge you to apply says Whitni Thomas, judge of the award
Triodos Bank, which offers banking services for social businesses, charities and groups, has joined forces with Eve magazine to launch the second Women in Ethical Business Awards (WEBA).
The awards aim to celebrate the women behind some of the most inspiring, ethical businesses in the UK.
The 2007 WEBA winner will be an entrepreneur bringing ethical lifestyle choices into the mainstream – using business to make the world a better place. As well as wider recognition for their work, they will receive a specially tailored £2,500 business support package, providing practical help to move their business forward. And this year a new award will recognise the UK?s best emerging female entrepreneur.
?Women are driving some of the UK?s most exciting businesses, and the Women in Ethical Business Awards offers a welcome opportunity to celebrate their achievements,? says WEBA judge and Triodos Bank Investment Manager, Whitni Thomas. ?The Awards will be an inspiration for ethical entrepreneurs of the future, as well as a boost for today?s ethical business leaders. If you?re a woman who?s running an enterprise that makes a difference, I urge you to apply.?
