Peterborough mum-of-three is named among most ‘influential’ business owners
An entrepreneur in Peterborough has been named as one of the most influential businesswomen in the country.
Mum-of-three Michelle Wilson-Stimson has run her own business Eparaplan, offering expert administrative support to financial advisors, for the last 14 years.
Alongside that enterprise, Michelle, who left a career in the financial sector to run her own business, also operates online stationery company, Boss Bird.
Now Michelle has been shortlisted a finalist in the coveted Influential Business Woman of the Year category for the prestigious National Business Women’s Awards 2020.
Michelle, who now runs both businesses from her offices in Tinwell, Stamford, said: “I am delighted to be a finalist in these incredible awards that recognise hard working, innovative business women who are leaders in their chosen sectors.
“It is an honour to be a finalist alongside some really influential women and I am looking forward to the awards ceremony already.
She added: “It has been such a challenging year so far so to have something like this to look forward to at the end of it makes it all worthwhile.”
The Influential Business Woman category recognises those who are movers and shakers and are a leading force in their respective markets. Finalists also had to show a willingness to undertake new projects and show initiative. Other finalists include women from sport, HR, the rail industry and the beauty sector.
The National Business Women’s Awards ceremony takes place in Kensington on November 20.
