Showcasing female founded businesses from across the UK since 2022
Celebrating achievements, recognising the passion, energy and successes.
Our Mission
We want to share the brilliance of female-led business, recognising the passion, energy and commitment it takes to run a small business.
The Female Business Awards shares your pride, showcases your successes, and gives you that confidence to move forward - to grow, to build.
As small business owners ourselves, we know the time and sacrifices it can take to keep going, the rollercoaster of emotions you go through. But overall, we want to bring a sense of pride, of self-belief, and celebrate your amazing-ness with a community of others who understand completely how you feel - because we're all there with you.
