2023: Digital Women Awards’ Finalists

2023: Digital Women Awards' Finalists

The Digital Women Awards is an annual celebration of the incredible women working in and around digital and digital-based businesses. This annual project acknowledges and honors the achievements of women who are making a difference in their respective industries.

This year we received a huge amount of entries and in some categories a record amount. Shortlisting was incredibly hard. Our judges have a lot of work ahead to find this year’s winners. The finalists will be celebrated on the 4th of October in a glitzy ceremony at Sway in London!

On the 23rd of March, we announced live at the Digital Women Conference in Birmingham the finalists of the Digital Women Awards 2023. Here are those finalists.

Over the coming weeks, we will be releasing more information about each finalist and will be sharing our 70 digital women-to-watch book to celebrate these amazing women!

Finalists can announce their success here using this Adobe Express social media image and in true Digital Women style… learn something new at the same time!
