What this award recognises

Health, Wellness, Beauty & Aesthetics Entrepreneur Award

Founders building businesses in the care economy, where trust, clinical standards and client relationships are the product. Many immigrant women arrive with substantial clinical or professional training and rebuild a practice from zero in a new regulatory environment. This category recognises that rebuild.

Who should be nominated

Founders of clinics and healthcare practices, allied health and therapy services, fitness and wellness businesses, salons and spas, skincare and cosmetics brands, and medical aesthetics operations.
