Last October, the Business Journal honored five women business leaders from diverse industries at the 28th annualย Women in Business Awards.
The event recognized outstanding professional women who have made significant contributions to their organizations, their professions and the Orange County community.
Their backgrounds and industries are variedโfrom the operations lead of Orange Countyโs top jeweler to one of Newport Beachโs top specialty hospital executivesโbut all remained resilient throughout the pandemic and have kept their respective firms in growth mode during the challenging economic environment that followed.
The Business Journal recently caught up with the five winners to see just how theyโre managing this as their worlds have changed in the past year.
The next Women in Business Awards is scheduled forย Oct. 5ย at theย Irvine Marriott.
Aimee Weisner, an independent board member for three public medical companies including Aliso Viejo-based device and drug maker Glaukos Corp. (NYSE: GKOS),ย is the keynote speaker.
