The Top Women in Business and Government Awards Event is a product of the publication and the zenith of the annual publications endeavour. It has become a prestigious and desired award among the South African businesswomen's community. The Awards publicly acknowledge and celebrate the contributions, achievements and successes of those extraordinary people, companies, and government departments who have changed the South African economic and political landscape through their commitment to gender equality and the empowerment of women.

Our glamorous Awards Gala Dinner brings our country's leaders in business; industry and government, and top female personalities together; making it the year's most dynamic networking opportunity.

Top Women in Business & Government is a driving force in empowerment, a high-profile event linked with an annual publication. It showcases, rewards and celebrates companies and individuals for their work in gender development and empowerment in business and government. It also seeks to create business-networking opportunities, to address gender issues and to formulate empowerment goals in an entertaining and relevant way.

Extensive research into South Africa's leading woman-owned, woman-run and gender empowerment companies, and into South Africa's leading women across the public and private sector has seen the best represented in every year's awards.

"Being honoured with the award of Top Businesswoman of the Year in 2006 has put me in a league of some of the most powerful women in South Africa. It has also introduced me to a network of women who recognise your achievements, however, want to help in any way they can to ensure that you remain a success. This award, and the recognition that comes with it, have really given me the urge to propel forward with more vigor than ever before." Yolanda Cuba, Mvelaphanda.
