The PRECIOUS Awards was founded to celebrate the achievements of inspirational entrepreneurial women of colour who are running businesses in the UK. The Awards are about recognising success and inspiring other women of colour to launch their own business. We also recognise women in the workplace with the PRECIOUS Leadership within the Workplace Award. We are proud to applaud and highlight enterprise and innovation amongst some of the brightest stars contributing to UK plc.
We're pleased to announce this new category for this year's Awards: This category recognises the outstanding contribution that women of colour have made to the blogging revolution. We're looking for a 'stand-out' blog across any sector, so if you blog about fashion, business, science or music, we want to hear from you.
