Women in Accounting 2023 | Supported by Ignition

Sparking lasting confidence

The Women in Accounting awards acknowledge women who inspire others with their resilience, leadership, and mentorship. It’s all about celebrating and supporting active participation in creating a more diverse and inclusive industry.

Through sharing the inspiring stories of powerful women in accounting and bookkeeping, and holding space for important discussions on gender, leadership, and confidence, together we can help drive meaningful and informative change.

That’s why Ignition is partnering with our Women in Accounting judging panel and Top 50 alumni to acknowledge and celebrate inspiring women accountants who champion diversity, equity and inclusion in accounting.
