The TBBW Awards is a unique awards program, created by TBBW Magazine, to recognize distinguished women leaders whose dedication to their industries and communities deserves particular recognition.

Our judges included Danny Persaud, chief executive officer of MidFlorida Armored, Ed Ellsasser, CEO of PrimeGroup Insurance, Pam Iorio, former Mayor of Tampa and former CEO of Big Brothers Big Sisters America and Robert Hessel, CEO of Source 1 Solutions.

An awards program will recognize the honorees with a cocktail reception, and gala, at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Tampa, at 6 p.m., starting with a VIP reception, at 5:30 p.m., on April 21.
