The Awards celebrate the achievement of British based businesswomen in competing successfully in the Middle East and International marketplace. These are exporters of goods and services.

By their example of success and perseverance, these women are role models acting as inspiration to the wider business community as examples of successful exporting. They are mentors for women in international trade.

The  award was  made in association with UK DIT and The British Exporters Association. It is the first award recognising women’s achievements as exporters.
