About the Pleiades Award
The OWA presents the prestigious Pleiades Award to honor one individual who has shown exceptional support of women in the optical industry. This award is named after the star cluster “The Pleiades”, also known as the “Seven Sisters”, referring to the seven brightest stars in the cluster.
According to Greek mythology, each star was named after one of the seven daughters of Atlas who were turned into stars by Zeus. Together, these stars create one of the brightest clusters visible in the northern hemisphere, just as by working together, the women of the OWA have created an organization that is bigger and brighter than the sum of their individual efforts.
