AbbVie ranked No. 16 on the Fair360 2023 Top 50 Companies for Diversity list.
Allergan Aesthetics, an AbbVie company, announced 20 women entrepreneurs would receive funding and mentorship through the BOTOX Cosmetic and IFundWomen grant program.
The recipients will participate in a 10-week Crowdfunding Accelerator Program and learn from experts. The program will coach awardees on network mapping, content marketing, social media, public relations and crowdfunding for their business.
Coaches include leaders from IFundWomen and BOTOX Cosmetic.
“There were so many remarkable applications that featured thoughtful business solutions,” said Carrie Strom, President, Global Allergan Aesthetics and Senior Vice President at AbbVie. “BOTOX Cosmetic was born out of the entrepreneurial spirit and its more than 20-year history is rooted in people seeing a challenge and finding an answer. Each of the women selected to receive a grant saw a need for change, and set out to make a positive difference in the world. We are thrilled to celebrate them and support their businesses.”
More than 6,500 women submitted applications, each one reviewed by a panel.
