ATLANTA, GA, UNITED STATES, December 16, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Dr. Nazeera Dawood, Founder and CEO of Vendorship Inc., has been honored with the Women Entrepreneur Award at the ATEA EMERGE 2025 Entrepreneurs Conference, held this past Saturday in Dallas, Texas. The award was presented by the American Tamil Entrepreneurs Association (ATEA) during its flagship EMERGE conference, recognizing distinguished women leaders for entrepreneurial excellence, impact, and legacy.
The Women Entrepreneur Award celebrates accomplished women business owners who demonstrate visionary leadership, sustained growth, and meaningful contributions to business and community ecosystems. Dr. Dawood was recognized for her leadership journey spanning healthcare, public service, and entrepreneurship, as well as her commitment to expanding access and opportunity for businesses across sectors.
Originally from Dindigul, Tamil Nadu, India, Dr. Dawood began her professional career in medicine, serving as a Medical Officer at Kasturba Hospital. After earning her Master of Public Health (MPH) from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, she transitioned into public service, holding leadership roles within government as a Health Promotion Director and later as Chief of Staff to the Chairman of the Board of Commissioners. These experiences across healthcare, policy, and public administration ultimately led her into entrepreneurship, where she founded and now leads Vendorship Inc.
Under Dr. Dawood’s leadership, Vendorship has grown into a trusted coaching firm serving more than 200 clients, helping secure over $200 million in government contracts, and supporting organizations across federal, state, and local procurement landscapes.

Dr. Dawood’s work has been widely recognized for its civic and economic impact.
