Built for women who are bold in business, the Gwinnett Chamber honored more than 70 finalists and seven winners at the second annual Moxie Awards on Thursday, Aug. 29, at the Infinite Energy Center.
The 2019 Awards began with a panel comprised of successful women in various fields, including Liz Gillespie, Partner and VP at North American Properties; Sara Irvani, CEO of Okabashi; Hala Moddelmog, President & CEO of Metro Atlanta Chamber; and Natalie Morhous, President of RaceTrac.
The Moxie Awards recognized both individuals and organizations alike. Organizational awards highlighted companies that support the advancement of women, as well as those that are women-led. Individual awards honored those who are trailblazers in a male-dominated field, Gwinnett County champions, emerging leaders, professionals who are at the peak of their career, and those who are generous with their time, talent or resources.
