Amber Porter Takes Bronze In New York

[Brisbane, Queensland] - November 28, 2017- Amber Porter, COO of SponsoredLinX has been named the winner of a Bronze Stevie® Award in the Female Executive of The Year category in the 14th annual Stevie Awards for Women in Business.


The Stevie Awards for Women in Business are the world’s top honours for female entrepreneurs, executives, employees and the organizations they run.  All individuals and organizations worldwide are eligible to submit nominations – public and private, for-profit and non-profit, large and small. The 2017 awards received entries from 25 nations and territories.

Nicknamed the Stevies for the Greek word for “crowned,” the awards were presented to winners during a dinner event attended by more than 500 people at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York City.  The event was broadcast via Livestream.


The Bronze Stevie Award caps off a memorable 2017 for Amber, who began the year with an Award of Merit for Brisbane Women in Business. Ms Porter, who in just three short years has risen from Outbound Sales Manager to Chief Executive Officer of SponsoredLinX - Australia’s fastest growing digital marketing agency, was thrilled with the recognition.


“To be awarded the Bronze Stevie Award is a massive honour for me. To be considered amongst some of the most recognised and celebrated women across the world is very humbling. I’m very proud of the work my team has achieved in 2017”.


SponsoredLinX CEO Ben Bradshaw added, “Amber is truly invaluable for us at SponsoredLinX. The staff constantly look to her for guidance, as she’s incredibly knowledgeable and experienced for someone so young. We would be lost without her.”


Stevie Award winners were selected by more than 170 executives worldwide who participated in the judging process.

“The judges were so impressed with the accomplishments of all of the Stevie Award-winning women and organizations. The 2017 Stevie Awards for Women in Business received a record number of nominations and had a record number of ceremony attendees,” said Michael Gallagher, founder and president of the Stevie Awards. “We congratulate all of this year’s Grand, Gold, Silver and Bronze Stevie Award winners for their achievements.”
