The revamped event celebrates females in business across Scotland as well as celebrating and recognising supporters and champions of Scottish women in business. It will be the first awards held by SWIB - the leading business networking club for women in Scotland - since before the Covid-19 pandemic.

Tickets to the event on 6 September are now available at the Scottish Women in Business website
The awards ceremony is sponsored by leading wealth management company RBC Brewin Dolphin and the event will also raise funds for this year’s Scottish Women in Business charity partner, Baby Loss Retreat.
The awards judging panel includes Claire Nelson, Managing Director of the Netball Superleague, Purpose Coach Alice Thomson, Colin Lamb, Chief Explorer at Connect Three and Gordon White, People Leader at Capability Scotland.
SWIB President Sarah Heaney said: “We’re delighted to be back hosting our first awards since before lockdown…..and it’s been wonderful to see the volume and quality of entries this year. We’d like to congratulate all of our finalists and look forward to celebrating with them all on the day.
“It’s going to be a fantastic event and a great chance for Scotland’s women in business - and those who recognise and support them - to connect, network, collaborate and celebrate each other. The community of women business owners and leaders in Scotland is fast-growing and it’s a joy to be part of a movement in which women are so supportive of each other. We look forward to demonstrating that at the awards.”
Awards host Jennifer Reoch added: "I am so excited to be in a room full of amazing, inspirational women - it's so important to celebrate their success and it's a real honour to be part of it!"
