New York, NY, April 07, 2013 –(PR.com)– Stephanie Azzarone, President, Child’s Play Communications, received an Honorable Mention in the 2013 Enterprising Women of the Year Awards presented by Enterprising Woman magazine. Azzarone and others were recognized at a gala dinner on Thursday, April 4th at the Ritz-Carlton Fort Lauderdale in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

The annual Enterprising Women of the Year Awards, which celebrates the finest women entrepreneurs in North America and beyond, is widely considered one of the most prestigious recognition programs for women business owners.

Nominees are judged based upon the revenue growth of their company; the leadership they have exhibited in their local communities and/or at the state, national or international levels; and the ways in which they have given back to the women’s business community by mentoring or supporting other women in business.

Hundreds of nominees from around the world were considered for recognition. The magazine’s editorial team narrowed the field to a group of semi-finalists, while members of the magazine’s prestigious Advisory Board assisted in the final screening process.

“It takes a certain spirit and a great deal of determination to start your own business and make it successful,” said Azzarone. “As Child’s Play Communications celebrates its 25th Anniversary in 2013, this recognition is particularly timely and exciting. I am proud and delighted to be among this year’s honorees.”

Azzarone and other honorees will be featured in the May issue of Enterprising Women magazine.
