    Acquisition International aspires to seek out and celebrate the most exceptional businesswomen from around the globe who are making a positive impact in their industries and communities. These women are trailblazers, innovators, and role models who are leading the charge in their fields and inspiring others to follow in their footsteps.

    As women continue to excel in the business world and become an increasingly integral part of the global economy, we at Acquisition International believe it is important to recognize and celebrate this fact.

    As each year passes, both women-owned and women-led businesses are contributing more and more to the social, environmental, and economic prosperity in their business across the globe. For instance, women-owned businesses contribute £105 billion GVA (gross value added) to the UK economy, an increase of 40% since 2012. Employment in women owned businesses has increased by 26% to 2.9m. Women started 49% of new businesses in the US in 2021!

    From entrepreneurs and executives to nonprofit leaders and educators, our awards programme recognizes women of all backgrounds and career paths. We believe that diversity and inclusivity are crucial to driving progress, and we are proud to honour women who are breaking down barriers and paving the way for future generations.
