Albany Outstanding Women in Business / Women Who Mean Business

Overview

The Albany Business Review’s Women in Leadership / Outstanding Women in Business program recognizes standout women leaders in the Capital Region for professional achievement, community impact, and leadership. It is run by Albany Business Review (a local American City Business Journals publication), and companies and nominees pursue it for regional visibility, credibility with peers and clients, and event/publication exposure tied to a respected local business media brand. The award’s credibility comes from a long-running, editorially driven nominations process rather than a purely pay-to-play contest.

Eligibility Requirements
