LACE Awards
EVENT DETAILS
The Greater Women’s Business Council’s LACE (Ladies Achieving Continuous Excellence) Awards is an annual Black-tie celebration for our entire membership. It is here that we recognize our outstanding corporate partners and women business enterprises (WBEs) for their commitment and contributions to the mission of the GWBC.
In addition to the awards ceremony, LACE features a silent auction and an inspiring awards reception, and live entertainment followed by a fabulous dinner.
