WBENC'S 2012 Women's Business Enterprise Stars
Fourteen exemplary women business leaders received the nation's premier award for excellence among Women's Business Enterprises (WBEs) bestowed by WBENC at its annual Salute to Women's Business Enterprises, on Thursday, March 22, 2012, before more than 1,200 corporate executives, government and nonprofit VIPs, and WBEs at the Baltimore Marriott Waterfront Hotel in Baltimore, MD.
Selected by WBENC's 14 Regional Partner Organizations (RPOs), the 2012 WBENC WBE Stars serve as national spokeswomen on behalf of WBENC citing the benefits of certification, corporate and/or government access, business and educational opportunities, and networking and alliances.
"Recognition of these 14 women is a vital representation of the caliber of women businesses that WBENC certifies and provides as sourcing solutions to America's corporations and government entities," says WBENC President and CEO Pamela Prince-Eason. "As national representatives of WBENC, these women not only symbolize the best in their respective industries, but also serve as advocates for women in business and strong supporters of their local communities and other women businesses."
The following 2012 WBENC Women's Business Enterprise Stars were recognized for leadership in their respective local business communities, inspiration to other women business owners, and active roles at the helm of successful certified businesses. Click on any WBE Star's name to view her biography.
