Telstra Business Women’s Awards 2019

The Telstra Business Women’s Awards exists to recognise women doing things differently in business. Strong voices that are creating positive change, opening new opportunities, new markets.

We’re working to make the 2019 Telstra Business Women’s Awards bigger and better than ever.

Nominations for the Awards are open year-round, and this year we’ll officially commence our nomination campaign on 27 September 2018.

Entries also open on the 27 September 2018 and close on 14 November 2018 and finalists will be announced in February 2019. State winners will be announced in March 2019 and the National Gala Dinner will be held in June 2019.

It’s a subtle shift in the timing of the Telstra Business Women’s Awards, designed to give these inspirational women the networking opportunities, attention and adulation they so richly deserve.

We look forward to sharing new and inspiring stories of business success and celebrating the truly remarkable achievements of women in business.

So please tell us your story or nominate someone driving positive change within a small, medium or large business, social enterprise or public-sector organisation.
