Now in its 12th year, the WMB event recognises the achievements of outstanding businesswomen and female entrepreneurs. Speaking at the awards ceremony yesterday, Rosemary Delaney, Founder and Managing Director of WMB said that she was fortunate to come into contact with “seriously inspiring individuals”.

“Women who climbed the corporate ladder and turned to help those who have stepped onto the first rung, and entrepreneurs who want to change the world and have decided to do it themselves. All share moments of fear, all struggle at times to find an equilibrium in their lives and all possess the passion, tenacity, intelligence and camaraderie to make a difference – our finalists and winners are true Women who Mean Business,” Ms Delaney added.
