Why Recognition Matters: The Power of a Nomination

on July 07, 2025

In a fast-paced, performance-driven industry like automotive, we often celebrate the final result — the product launch, the breakthrough technology, the record-breaking figures. But behind every milestone is a person or team who dared to innovate, who led with integrity, or who made space for others to rise. That’s what the Women Automotive Awards: Europe are all about.

Taking place at our flagship Europe Summit this October, these awards are more than a moment in the spotlight — they’re a chance to amplify stories that might otherwise go untold.

Why Nominate?

Whether it’s a colleague who’s broken new ground, a leader who’s quietly championed others, or an organization setting new standards for progress — a nomination says, we see you. And that recognition can be transformative.

It’s not just about trophies. It’s about visibility, validation, and a ripple effect that inspires others to aim higher. For companies, it’s a chance to demonstrate your values in action — to show your commitment to empowering women and building better workplaces.

What’s the Value?

  • For Individuals: It boosts confidence, opens doors, and affirms the impact of their work.

  • For Teams: It fosters pride, unity, and a culture of appreciation.

  • For Organizations: It positions you as an employer of choice — one that invests in people, not just performance.

The Women Automotive Awards are peer-nominated — which means the impact is real, personal, and grounded in lived experience. It’s not about chasing status. It’s about pausing to celebrate those moving our industry forward.

So if someone comes to mind — nominate them. Shine a light on the people shaping the future of automotive.
