New York Women in Communications' mission is to empower women in all communications disciplines to reach their full potential by promoting their professional growth and inspiring them to achieve and share their successes in the rapidly changing world of communications.
The Matrix Awards luncheon, with its annual theme of "Women Who Change the World," helps us to achieve this mission. It is the platform whereby we celebrate the work of outstanding women in all communications disciplines, and award the next generation of communications professionals with scholarships for them to either start or continue their education. Each year, we honor outstanding women in the communications industry.
