As an entrepreneur myself, I understand the determination and innovation it takes to turn an idea into a successful business.I am proud to once again sponsor the Award for Entrepreneur – 40 Years and Over. The women in this category have started and led businesses that connect people with resources, protect the environment, preserve our regional heritage and so much more. Every small business has a story, and our nominees tell a story of excellence.Looking forward to celebrating the brilliant accomplishments of this year’s Women of the Year!
