Mpower Award Results 2019
We are proud to announce the results for each of our 14 award categories - recognising and celebrating what it takes to make it as a mum in business
Huge thanks to our sponsors...
Everyone is a winner...
Our judges poured over the HUNDREDS of entries we received from mums in business from across the UK and beyond - one thing is for sure, it was no easy task!
Each and every one of the entries inspired us, moved us and made us proud to be part of this incredible movement of mums in business. There was much deliberation!
A huge congratulations to every mum in business! You are already a winner because you are on this journey - taking up the challenge of combining business and motherhood.
Celebrating all of our finalists and these results at the Mpower Awards Gala on June 29th was a magical experience - thank you to each and everyone one of you who attended. To those who couldn't make it in person this year, we still celebrated you and were thinking of you.
So here is a summary of the 2019 Mpower Awards results...
