2023 WES Awards finalists announced

First published on September 19, 2023

We’ve had a record number of entries for the Women’s Enterprise Scotland Awards 2023! 

Women led businesses from across Scotland have been chosen as finalists for the WES awards, with the judging panel facing the difficult task of determining just 51 finalists across 10 categories from an unprecedented number of entries. Head to the Women’s Enterprise Scotland site to discover the full list of finalists. 
The award winners will be announced at a spectacular dinner event at voco Grand Central, Glasgow on 26 October 2023. Join us on the evening to recognise and celebrate the notable contribution women-led businesses make to Scotland’s economy. We would like to say a big thank you to everyone who entered the awards this year. We know as a business owner, entering yourself into awards can be a scary process and a big step to take. So, even if the outcome was not what you had wished, don’t let this deter you from entering in the future. We see businesses who have applied in previous years try again and have success in becoming finalists and winners.
