The award honors outstanding businesswomen for lifetime achievement, philanthropy and entrepreneur to watch. Nomination deadline is May 12. The winners will be honored later in the year.
“The Remarkable Women Awards is NAWBO-OC’s signature event and allows the organization to showcase the exceptionally talented and accomplished businesswomen we have in Orange County,” said NAWBO-OC President-elect Loreen Gilbert.
“This event gives us the opportunity to learn from the honorees’ life journeys and, year after year, has proven to be an inspirational evening that demonstrates the integral role women business owners play in our community.”
