Among the inspiring stories shared, Kayleigh Savva, Regional Sales Executive at AdSmart from Sky, who won Women in Sales, reflected on her achievement:
“Being nominated alone was a significant achievement, especially knowing it came from a pool of 92 countries. I have worked tirelessly over the past three years, building relationships, enhancing my skills, and striving for excellence in sales. To be recognised with this award is truly humbling and a testament to the power of dedication and hard work.”
From heartfelt speeches to inspiring stories of perseverance, the ceremony was more than an awards night; it was a tribute to the power of women in business.
Angela De Souza, Founder and CEO of Women’s Business Club, captured the spirit of the night, stating: “There is nothing quite like celebrating the accomplishments of our businesswomen. This year, we received some truly outstanding entries, making the judges’ decisions incredibly challenging. While only one woman could win in each category, every entrant is a winner in their own right. Each woman stands tall, determined to succeed and carrying hope for the future – a true winning attitude.”
