Veuve Clicquot announces the three finalists for the Bold Woman Award in Nigeria
The committed Bold Woman Award initiative, inspired by the audacity of Madame Clicquot, celebrates its 50th anniversary this year. The first edition of this businesswoman’s award will be held in Nigeria. Three finalists are in the running to win.
Created in 1972, the Veuve Clicquot Businesswoman Award, better known as the Bold Woman Award, celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2022.
The initiative was inspired by the aplomb and perseverance of Madame Clicquot, who in the 19th century became the first woman to run a Champagne House. Years later, the Prize has taken off internationally. 27 subsidiaries of the eponymous House now award their prizes independently. In half a century, more than 450 women entrepreneurs have been honored, from Japan to Australia, from the Netherlands to South Korea.
And for its half-century, the Bold Woman Award arrives for the first time in Africa. And more precisely in Nigeria to reward the impact of female leadership and innovation in Nigeria.
Selected among more than 250 Nigerian businesswomen, Affionf Williams, founder of ReelFruit, Ifedayo Durosinmi-Etti, creator of Herconomy and Ifeoluwa Dare-Johnson, head of Healthtracka are the three finalists of the prestigious Veuve Clicquot Award.
