The Sukces Pisany Szminką Foundation has been supporting women in their professional and personal pursuits for years. Founded by Olga Kozierowska, the Foundation aims to increase women's participation in business, politics, and public life. Sukces Pisany Szminką not only provides inspiration but also offers concrete tools and educational programs that help women develop their skills, gain knowledge, and build networks. One of the Foundation's flagship projects is the Sukces Pisany Szminką Bizneswoman of the Year contest, which recognizes women who run their own businesses.
As a participant in this prestigious contest, we had the opportunity to witness the incredible talent and determination of women in business. It was not only inspiring but also motivating for our own growth and development.
The Sukces Pisany Szminką Bizneswoman of the Year contest consists of several stages. Applications were accepted until the end of the year, after which the selection committee began evaluating the candidates. In the first stage, semifinalists were chosen, followed by finalists in various categories, including microbusiness. Among the finalists of the XV edition of the contest were entrepreneurs who stand out for their creativity, determination, and ability to cope with market challenges.
Our CEO, Magdalena Ostoja-Chyżyńska, is one of these exceptional women. As the president of UX GIRL, a boutique design agency specializing in the Fintech, Adtech, and Greentech sectors, Magdalena has shown how small and medium-sized enterprises can offer top-level services, competing with the biggest players in the market.
Collaborating with other finalists, such as Martyna Brzozowska from Zrób mi mamo and Emilia Kojło from Small Art, was incredibly inspiring. Martyna Brzozowska, by organizing workshops and online programs for women to teach them the art of knitting, not only preserves traditional crafts but also empowers women. Similarly, Emilia Kojło, who opened an online store in response to the pandemic, demonstrates how flexibility and creativity can turn a crisis into success.
Final Gala The winners of this year's contest were announced on May 13 during the ceremonial Gala. This special event will brought together not only the finalists and winners but also numerous guests and representatives from the worlds of business, media, and culture. Participating in the Gala was an excellent opportunity for networking and exchanging experiences, which we hope will also lead to new initiatives and collaborations.
