The National Association of Women Business Owners, Santa Barbara chapter, will host its 2023 BRAVO Awards ceremony on March 16th to celebrate the achievements of eight women community, industry, and business leaders.
This year’s luncheon and awards ceremony, titled “Dream Big, Power On,” is the largest since the BRAVO Awards launched nine years ago. The event will be held at the Hilton Garden Inn Santa Barbara/Goleta from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The BRAVO AWARDS were created to recognize local women leaders who have enriched Santa Barbara economically, politically, philanthropically, and socially. Award recipients have taken the initiative to make an impact, brought new ideas to their industries, and motivated, educated, and inspired others to become better.
Winners of this year’s awards include Marsha Bailey, founder and CEO Emerita of Women’s Economic Ventures, who will receive a Lifetime Achievement Award for her decades-long work to improve society through the economic empowerment of women.
