Brava! Awards

Lorena Streb - Brava! Awards

SmartCEO’s Brava! Awards program celebrates top female CEOs who combine their irrepressible entrepreneurial spirit with a passion for giving back to the community. Brava! award winners are exemplary leaders in their companies and the Baltimore community by encouraging local philanthropy, mentoring fellow CEOs and setting their companies on the path to significant growth. Each year, an independent panel of business leaders selects 25 Brava! winners based on applications submitted. SmartCEO shares their inspiring stories in SmartCEO magazine and celebrates their success at an awards celebration.
