Advancing Innovation Awards
Join us September 17!
What are the Advancing Innovation Awards?
Advancing Women in Nashville (AWIN) seeks to recognize member organizations who are advancing innovative changes that improve the workplace and/or broader community and develop women as business leaders. In recognizing our members' positive changes, AWIN seeks to share those best practices with others and thereby widen the scope of impact and progress.
