First Moxie Award Event Celebrates What Makes Area Businesses Bold

Hundreds of area business leaders joined marketing and PR firm Verasolve on November 8th at the Ritz-Carlton Tysons for the first ever Moxie Award, celebrating boldness in Washington D.C. area-based businesses. This new award honors companies making a difference in the marketplace with bold initiatives, strategic market moves and moxie. 

Among the award winners were a Deloitte Technology Fast 500 company, a business revolutionizing brain injury detection, the firm behind D.C.’s new waterfront development The Wharf and many others.

“The response to the Moxie Award call for entries greatly exceeded expectations,” said Katie Jordan, Moxie Award Executive Chair and a principal at Verasolve. The team received hundreds of entries that a panel evaluated carefully. During the event, attendees heard insights from executive leaders about novel strategies, formulas for success and what defines moxie.
