Jenny Munford wins an RBC Canadian Women Entrepreneur of the Year Award


Jenny Munford, CEO of Creative Bube Tube was recently presented with the coveted award in Toronto on November 28th. Senior Account Manager at RBC, Peter Oliveira, nominated the owner of the Advertising Agency and Production Company for the award back in July this year.

This year RBC received over 3000 nominations for women entrepreneurs from across Canada. Jenny was nominated for the Deloitte Start-Up award, which recognizes entrepreneurs who have been in business between three to five years and now have a successful and profitable business with a comprehensive business plan that's ready for second-stage growth.

Jenny was chosen as one of three finalists in her category but didn't find out the final verdict until a special gala hosted by the Women of Influence at the Fairmont Royal York Hotel in Toronto. "I'm so happy to be receiving this award. It not only brings recognition to the Creative Bube Tube team but also the clients who have believed in us and helped us grow."

Creative Bube Tube has also received 26 industry-recognized awards this year for commercial excellence in marketing and television advertising.

About RBC Canadian Women Entrepreneur of the Year Award:

The purpose of the Awards is to provide national recognition to Canada's women entrepreneurs, whose successful businesses and achievements contribute so much to the Canadian and global economies as well as to their communities. Women of Influence Inc., who produces inspiring, progressive, and celebratory events across the country, created the awards. Their programs serve to fill the gap for women looking for mentors, looking to connect with likeminded individuals on their path to success, or looking for unique corporate entertainment.
