Digital Woman of the year 2022 Award win
Businesswoman Ayo Abbas from Abbas Marketing has taken home the top honour of Digital Woman of the Year 2022 at the Digital Women Awards.
The Digital Women Awards celebrates women working in and around digital and business who are innovating and doing incredible work in their respective industries. The Awards are open to all females working in digital industries and entrepreneurship, with entrants going through a rigorous judging process by an esteemed panel of judges. The Digital Woman of the Year category was highly contested and received 100s of nominations that were then whittled down to a shortlist of 50.
Ayo Abbas, Founder and Marketing Consultant at Abbas Marketing said:
“I set up Abbas Marketing in February 2020, the month before we went into the first lockdown, and I honestly wasn’t expecting to win with such a diverse and strong final 50 line-up. This award is a welcome surprise especially as it was based on the performance of only my second year in business. It really does go to show that there is space in the world of digital business for everyone and that it’s not just about consumers but there is a lucrative market that we can capitalise on in a business-2-business context.”
“I specialise in advising companies working in the predominately male sector of construction and the built environment, but my win demonstrates that diverse voices, including women such as myself, do have a role to play in the transformation of these industries. And they in turn offer us a wealth of opportunities for our businesses to grow.”
Lucy Hall, Community Lead and Founder of Digital Women said:
“We are really excited to celebrate once again all of the incredible women going over and above and doing truly amazing things in the digital space. This is a significant time to celebrate businesswomen, entrepreneurs and all people in digital industries, I’m so glad we get to recognise all of these fantastic achievements from our community and beyond at the Digital Women Awards 2022.”
