Núria Vilanova, president and founder of ATREVIA and president of the Consejo Empresarial Alianza por Iberoamérica (Business Council Alliance for Ibero-America) (CEAPI), received the “Exceptional Women Of Excellence” award this Thursday, November 11, during the latest edition of the Women Economic Forum, which was held for the first time in Ecuador, in recognition of her extensive career, a source of inspiration for many people. The organization recognizes the most outstanding individuals in different disciplines’ achievements and leadership through this award while celebrating diversity and equity.
Vilanova was one of the main panel speakers during the meeting, which was held online, and during which the award was also officially presented. In line with its primary objective, the event once again focused on women’s economic empowerment and inclusion.
The Women Economic Forum is the largest women’s chamber globally, with more than 250,000 members in 150 countries, and is also the fastest growing women’s network in the world. This year’s forum, organized for the first time in Ecuador by Atributos in alliance with the All Ladies League organization, is the world’s most crucial summit dedicated to actively empowering and showcasing women’s talent in all sectors of the economy, inspiring, connecting, and transforming lives.
For Núria Vilanova, “it is an absolute pleasure to participate in this event that fosters dialogue, networking and much-needed collaboration between entrepreneurs and leaders in all spheres of life. It is an honor that WEF Ecuador recognizes me as deserving of an award as prestigious as the Exceptional Women Of Excellence and an inspiration to continue working hard in this long-distance race towards women’s entrepreneurial empowerment. There is still a long way to go before we can truly speak of gender equality, but the important thing is to continue moving forward, and we will put all our efforts in this direction.”
The digital streaming of the event attracted more than 80k viewers, generating a significant impact in 19 countries.
