Outstanding female publishers who have made a tangible difference to the industry will be honoured with the PublisHer Excellence Awards, Sheikha Bodour Al Qasimi announced on Monday.
Addressing the Sharjah Publishers Conference ahead of the Sharjah International Book Fair, the founder of PublisHer and Kalimat Group said the awards were integral to PublisHer’s mission to celebrate female publishers and empower their rise to leadership.
She said: “In my experience, women are very good at forming support groups and lifting each other up — despite the tropes that say otherwise. Think of the PublisHer Excellence Awards as an extension of that support — we want to celebrate, elevate, and encourage women who cut their own paths and light the way forward through their resilience, ingenuity, and vision.”
