Women in business honored by Minnesota awards afternoon

The Achieve Awards ceremony and luncheon will be held in St. Paul next month, and is to be presented by the National Association of Women Business Owners - Minnesota (NAWBO-MN).

All guests through the door will receive a free swag bag filled with promotional items from local businesses. The keynote speaker for the event is Jill Blashack Strahan from Tastefully Simple.

There are several awards to be presented during the luncheon, including Woman Business Owner of the Year, the Women Pioneer Award, the Lifetime Achievement Award, and Volunteer of the Year.

There will also be a trade show display table for businesswomen to promote their companies. Fees are $100 for NAWBO-MN members or $250 for nonmembers.

Many of those planning to exhibit will want to provide as much information about their company as possible to those attending this St. Paul event. Local brochure printers may have an increase in orders prior to the luncheon as a result.

The Achieve Awards ceremony and luncheon is taking place at the St. Anthony Main Event Center on November 12 from 10:30 am - 2:30 pm. Tickets in advance are $60 for NAWBO-MN members, $75 for non-members, and $35 for students and past presidents, whereas prices on the day of the event are $75 for members and $100 for non-members.
