Beginning in 1992 and culminating in 2004, the Rotman Canadian Woman Entrepreneur of the Year Awards paid tribute to Canada's most successful female entrepreneurs for their important contributions to the economy. The program was an initiative of the University of Toronto's Rotman School of Management and BMO Financial Group. The purpose of these Awards was to provide national recognition to Canada's women entrepreneurs, whose successful businesses and achievements contribute so much to the Canadian and global economies as well as to their communities. By honouring these entrepreneurs, we helped to advance their business and personal networks; provide significant profile and visibility for them and their businesses; create additional opportunities to actively participate on for-profit and non-profit boards, government committees and/or industry associations; and increase the number of role models and mentors for all entrepreneurs, both male and female. 1, record 2, English, - Rotman%20Canadian%20Women%20Entrepreneur%20of%20the%20Year%20Awards
