In March, women-owned companies took the top honors at the chamber’s annual awards + the Scenic City has been called the second best city for female-led businesses.

And beyond business owners, we know there are countless wonderful women working hard to contribute to the local economy.

Maybe you know a woman who is the CEO of a small business who works tirelessly to grow her company. Maybe you know someone who deserves recognition because she keeps her head down and quietly works for the best of everyone around her. Maybe you have a friend who is in a male-dominated industry and is killing it despite the challenges that could bring.

So that brings us to this question, NOOGA — what local woman in business do you think deserves attention for their work? And why?

Here’s what we want to do. ⬇️
