NEW YORK, Oct. 6, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- EvolveMKD was named a Finalist in five separate categories in the 13th annual Stevie® Awards for Women in Business, and will ultimately be a Gold, Silver, or Bronze Stevie Award winner for each category in the program.

The Stevie Awards for Women in Business honor women executives, entrepreneurs, employees, and the companies they run – worldwide. The Stevie Awards have been hailed as the world's premier business awards.

Gold, Silver, and Bronze Stevie Award winners will be announced during an event at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York on Friday November 18. Nominated women executives and entrepreneurs from the U.S.A and several other countries are expected to attend. The event will be broadcast on Livestream and the pre-show from the red carpet will be streamed on the Stevie Awards' Facebook feed.

Evolve earned the finalist distinction in five categories: Women-Run Workplace of the Year (more than 10 employees), Startup of the Year (Business Services Industries), Company of the Year (Business Services – more than 10 employees), and Communications or PR Campaign of the Year (Marketing, Consumer Products) for its client, Cellfina. Evolve CEO Megan Driscoll was also nominated Female Entrepreneur of the Year (business services – 11 to 2,500 employees).

Evolve is among more than 1,500 entries submitted this year for consideration in more than 90 categories. Finalists were chosen by more than 110 business professionals worldwide during preliminary judging. Members of five final judging committees will determine the Gold, Silver, and Bronze Stevie Award placements from among the Finalists during final judging October 17-26.

"These award nominations come just as we celebrate our two-year anniversary," said Megan Driscoll, CEO, and founder of Evolve. "These nominations are the result of a lot of hard work by our talented team. We're all very excited."

When Evolve opened its doors in September 2014, the agency had four employees and three clients and was operating out of Driscoll's apartment. Thanks to its multi-talented team of expert communicators, the agency currently maintains an all-female staff of 20 serving 20 innovative clients in the health and beauty industry from its 5,000-square-foot custom designed space in New York's Chelsea neighborhood.
