Women’s Leadership & Creative Excellence Award ﺟﺎﺋﺰة اﻟﺘﻤﻴﺰ اﻟﻘﻴﺎدي واﻹﺑﺪاع اﻟﻨﺴﺎﺋﻲ
The Women’s Leadership and Innovation Excellence Award is an initiative by the Syrian Emirati Council of Businesswomen, aimed at recognizing and empowering outstanding female leaders while supporting their ventures.
The award also seeks to highlight distinguished organizations led by women that have made a tangible impact in the fields of leadership, innovation, and community development.
It celebrates achievements across two main categories—individual and institutional—with a strong focus on visionary leadership, measurable results, and social responsibility.
All applications will be evaluated by a panel of three experts from the Arab Canadian Innovation Association. Each submission will undergo a rigorous assessment based on the criteria outlined on the official award website.
