Dubai Quality Group (DQG) and Shell have announced that they have extended the deadline for receiving applications for the Emirates Business Women Award (EBWA) 2008 from April 3, 2008 to April 14, 2008.

The extended submission period for entries allows EBWA, which is also supported by Paris Gallery, the prize sponsor, to widen its reach and encourage participation from more candidates.

Samia Al Yousuf, General Manager of DQG commented: "There are a lot of women in the UAE who deserve to be recognised, while there has also been strong interest from potential candidates; we are offering these new prospects the opportunity to be considered for EBWA 2008 by giving them more time to prepare and consolidate their credentials. As such, we have decided to extend the deadline for submission of applications from the April 3 till April 14 in order to accommodate more candidates."

EBWA 2008 aims to recognise and reward the exemplary contributions of women in the business and professional sectors of the UAE. The award has generated strong response from business and professional women after DQG successfully organised several promotional activities.
