**Nominations are now open for women in Brighton and Sussex to get the recognition they deserve.**

[Venus](http://www.venusmovement.com/venus-awards/?ref=scenemag.co.uk) was set up in 2010 as a vehicle for working women to be acknowledged for their efforts and achievements on a more holistic level. Coined by Channel 4 as “The Working Women’s Oscars”, Venus has over the last decade recognised many thousands of women.

Some are entrepreneurs and some are making a difference in the organisations they work for. Many of these inspirational women are modest about their achievements which is why Venus has a nomination process in place. The categories have been selected so there is something for everyone, whatever their discipline and include:

• Small Business  
• Influential Woman of the Year  
• Director of the Year  
• Inspirational Woman of the Year  
• Social Media Influencer  
• Charity Leader of the Year  
• Business Mother of the Year  
• Entrepreneur of the Year  
• Professional of the Year  
• Diversity & Inclusion Champion  
• Employer of the Year  
• HR Professional
