For mom entrepreneurs in Canada, this time of the year is a good time to look towards the future. This is also the time that SavvyMom announces their Mom Entrepreneur of the year. Along with the honor comes a variety of prizes that are donated by various sponsors. This year that honor goes to Laura Berg of My Smart Hands.
My Smart Hands, a company founded by Laura Berg of Toronto that aims to educate young minds through baby sign language, amassed the most votes to win the 2010 SavvyMom Entrepreneur of the Year Award presented by PayPal Canada. Awarded one week prior to Small Business Week in Canada, the award is another positive sign of how Mom Entrepreneurs are starting and growing successful companies.
“This award and the prizes that go along with it could not have come at a better time,” said Berg on winning the national business award from SavvyMom Media, now in its fourth year. “My business has reached a point where I need to invest some serious money to take it to the next level. The prize money and professional services will definitely be put to good use. I am excited to see the vision I have for My Smart Hands come to fruition and the SavvyMom Mom Entrepreneur Award will play a huge role in getting me even further ahead!”
