Wenger Awards Celebration
The Wenger Awards Celebration is the centerpiece of the WomenHeart Summit. Named in honor of Dr. Nanette K. Wenger, a trailblazer in women’s cardiovascular medicine, the event recognizes individuals and organizations driving progress in research, care, and advocacy.
Guests experience an inspiring evening that celebrates achievement, legacy, and the collective commitment to improving women’s heart health. Each story shared and award presented reminds us why this work matters and how leadership rooted in compassion creates lasting impact.
