The inaugural ‘Singapore Mumpreneur of the Year’ award was created to honour and celebrate the lives and achievements of these remarkable women who have managed to carve out time away from the demands of raising children to run flourishing businesses. These mothers own the company, develop the business concepts and structure, and are responsible for the day-to-day operations and financial performance of the company. And they started all this after, not before, becoming mothers. No small feat – ask any average mum who doesn’t have a business to run.
Entries for the ‘Singapore Mumpreneur of the Year’ award are self-nominated and thereafter a panel of judges selects 20 finalists, based on the company’s capacity for innovation, impact and growth potential. The profiles get presented on a website open to votes from the public, with the finalist with the most votes winning the title. In addition to this grand prize, five additional titles will be awarded to the top finalists. These include the Most Internet-Savvy Mumpreneur and Most Family-Friendly Business.
All prizes for the ‘Singapore Mumpreneur of the Year’ will be awarded during a ceremony at Mama’s Bazaar, which will be held in conjunction with the Family Fun weekend from 20 to 21 September 2014, at the HarbourFront Centre Atrium.
