AWCNJ member and Past President, Holly Kaplansky, recently received the Ellis Still EPI Alumni Award from the Rutgers University Center for Urban Entrepreneurship & Economic Development.

 

Given in recognition of outstanding entrepreneurial success, the award was presented during the organization's Global Entrepreneurship Week: Local Wealth, Global Millions Panel & Awards Ceremony. 

 

"I am so very excited and proud to have received this award," Holly said. "Rutgers Business School is such a prestigious and respected institution. I am honored to be associated with the University and especially the Center for Urban Entrepreneurship & Economic Development (CUEED) in their Entrepreneurship Pioneers Initiative (EPI) Program. It is a wonderful program for business owners and executives to learn how to grow and improve their businesses."
