OC Inspirational Women: Leadership Awards 2023

Orange County INSPIRATIONAL WOMEN FORUM AND LEADERSHIP AWARDS

Recognize Your Power

Los Angeles Times B2B Publishing is excited to announce inaugural Orange County Inspirational Women Forum and Leadership Awards event recognizing female business leaders who have demonstrated noteworthy success and accomplishments during the last 24 months. The event is scheduled for August 18, 2023.

If you are a female business leader in Orange County, California — or admire someone who is — we invite you to nominate yourself or someone for award consideration. Our judging committee will assess contributions and leadership within the nominee’s organization, the business world, and the community at large.

The Orange County Inspirational Women Forum & Leadership Awards is a half-day event. The Awards Luncheon will recognize accomplished female leaders from corporations or non-profit organizations throughout Orange County who have demonstrated noteworthy success and accomplishments during the last 24 months in approximately 10 award categories. In the morning, before the Awards Luncheon, a series of dynamic panel discussions featuring top business leaders with versatile backgrounds will take place aiming to inspire, empower and enlighten the audience.

The L.A. Times B2B Publishing team will publish a companion magazine, available in print and online, following the in-person event that will feature profiles of the nominees and recap the event.

There is no cost to nominate for award consideration. However, we will only profile two people from each company or firm due to limited space.

You may contact Karren Adamyan at (626) 347-8673 for any issues with the submission.

In-person event date: August 18, 2023

Magazine publishing date: September 17, 2023
