This selection is in recognition of the continuing support she gives to 100's of fashion entrepreneurs via mentoring, training and access to funding.
Alison said 'I've always felt passionately that it's important for business leaders share their expertise with the next generation . I am delighted to be selected for this prestigious award and thankful to both Maserati and the Centre for Entrepreneurs for celebrating and encouraging entrepreneurship in this way. I have always found mentoring designer-makers and fashion brands rewarding and inspiring, and it's so exciting to see so many of the entrepreneurs we've worked with, start and grow in to successful enterprises'.
