Women In Nutraceuticals (WIN), a non-profit initiated by global nutraceutical leaders and advocates for gender parity in the industry, has been recognized with the Nutrition Business Journal (NBJ) award for Efforts on Behalf of Industry in 2022.
NBJ Editor-in-Chief Rick Polito stated, “Explaining how more women in leadership positions could be a viable boost for the industry’s slowing sales growth was not why [WIN] was founded, but the fact that women have insights pivotal to how products are developed and marketed is certainly an attention-grabbing argument for 2022 and 2023. Showing how women are essential in leadership, no matter the economic conditions, and then working to put them there made WIN an easy pick for the Efforts on Behalf of Industry Award.”
Winners of the awards will be recognized in-person at the NBJ Summit Awards Dinner on July 26, 2023. WIN Board Chair Karen Todd will accept the award on behalf of the organization.
“It’s been gratifying to see how enthusiastically the nutraceuticals industry has signed on to WIN’s gender parity mission,” Todd said. “With this recognition coming on the heels of our recent benchmark study results and reports from respected business strategy publications identifying opportunities that gender parity would bring for industry growth, it’s clear that nutraceutical industry leaders see this wisdom.”
