Lilian was selected to represent her community at the eWomenNetwork International Femtor Awards Gala during the 6th Annual International Conference and Business Expo in Dallas, July 13-16.

"The Emerging Leader Femtor Award was established to recognize and encourage young businesswomen who give back to their communities and other women," said Sandra Yancey, Founder and CEO of eWomenNetwork Inc. and the author of the recently released book Relationship Networking: The Art of Turning Contacts into Connections. "We call them 'Femtors' because they help other women succeed and thrive by investing their knowledge, skills, time, resources and insights. 'Femtoring' is the art and compassion of a woman helping another woman succeed and achieve her dreams," she added. "At only 28 years of age, Lilian has already developed an exemplary track record of leadership, achievement and service." The eWomenNetwork International Femtor Awards encompass awards in four categories: "Business Matchmaker of the Year," "Businesswoman of the Year," "Emerging Leader of the Year," and "Humanitarian of the Year." The awards are presented by the eWomenNetwork Foundation on the first night of the eWomenNetwork International Conference in a gala event attended by approximately 2000 businesswomen and the media. "Emerging Leaders" must be between the ages of 20 and 29. They are women who inspire others, are respected by their peers and who volunteer time and energy to serve others less fortunate than themselves.
