2010 Louise Blouin Foundation Awards
September 23, 2010
The Louise Blouin Foundation Award honors individuals who have made a positive impact on a global scale. The sixth annual Awards will be presented at the Blouin Creative Leadership Summit Gala Dinner & Awards Ceremony on September 23, 2010 in New York City.
The achievements of each honoree extend beyond the confines of his or her chosen field and affect a truly global audience. Some of the questions and problems honorees have sought to resolve are scientific or artistic, some are economic or political, but all are relevant to the global community and all are consummate examples of creativity in thought and action.
The Foundation seeks recipients who have chosen highly individual paths in pursuing ambitious goals. The Award represents our esteem for the recipients’ achievements as well as our shared belief in the value of finding creative solutions to improve economic and social conditions.
