Title:
Top 25 Recipients 2020
Date:
February 2020
The Top 25 Women of Influence™ awards recognize the extraordinary accomplishments of Canada’s diverse women role models. The recipients have all left their mark over the past year: contributing to the greater good through their initiatives; using their influence to drive positive change; or reaching inspiring heights in their career on a global stage.
From athletes to activists, corporate leaders to up-and-coming entrepreneurs — their unique achievements are impossible to compare against each other, which is why we’ve designed these awards as a celebration, rather than a ranking.
