Launched by Pinky Lilani in 1999, the Asian Women of Achievement Awards were set up to recognise the immense accomplishments and contributions that Asian women have made to wider society. The event was created to celebrate the strength, determination and commitment that Asian women have shown, recognising the achievements they have made in the commercial, professional, artistic and humanitarian sectors. They not only unite inspirational women from varied backgrounds and bring them together, but also applaud the difference that each woman has made to those around her.

The purpose of the Awards:

To acknowledge, celebrate and reward the individual efforts of the very special women who will be nominated for and actually receive the Awards

To provide role models for, and to give inspiration to Asian women from all walks of life in the UK

To raise awareness outside the Asian community of the outstanding achievements of Asian women in this country.
