Each year, the NAWBO Columbus Visionary Award honors one Central Ohio woman business owner who has achieved success with her business while making notable contributions to her community, her industry and to initiatives for other women in business.

The award begins with peer nominations and involves a detailed application and selection process.  The nominees and the selection process remain confidential until the finalists are announced late May.

NAWBO Columbus hosts this coveted award as a prestigious way to recognize and showcase the amazing women who not only own and operate businesses that are vital to Ohio’s economy, but also find time and resources to identify needs and drive social change.

These Visionary women make Central Ohio better and stronger for all of us.

Please join us in honoring this year's Visionary finalists.	Yvette McGee Brown  Keynote speaker
