Congratulations on your nomination as one of Atlantic Canada’s 25 Most Powerful Women in Business!

Winners of this prestigious recognition will be profiled in the March/April edition of Atlantic Canada’s longest-publishing and most award-winning regional business magazine — Atlantic Business Magazine. And yes, that’s both our print and online editions, with a combined average of 50,000 readers per issue!

Winners will also be celebrated at a red carpet awards show being held at the Westin Nova Scotian in Halifax, N.S. on Thursday, March 5, 2026.

To proceed to the judging process, complete and submit the Nominee Information Form (shown to the right), including 2 letters of support from individuals outside your company/organization. Nominations must be submitted online using this confidential application.

For your information and to help you prepare your response, you can find a list of application form questions here.

The completed form and letters of support will be used by the judges in making their decision AND will serve as the source material for winner profiles in the March/April edition of Atlantic Business Magazine.

Finally, keep in mind that judges will be looking for details that show how your influence CURRENTLY extends beyond the parameters of your job to the broader business community. Past accomplishments are important, but ultimately selection for this year’s cohort depends primarily on what you are doing NOW.

Deadline for completed applications is 11:59 PM Atlantic Time, on November 16, 2025 (late submissions will not be accepted).
