2019 NAWBO Member of the Year – Merry Korn

Congratulations to 2019 NAWBO Columbus Member of the Year, Merry Korn, Pearl Interactive Network

Merry has been a member of NAWBO Columbus since 2010. She is a tremendous asset to the Public Policy committee, taking an active role in key policy decisions. Most recently, Merry played a critical role in the passage of HB494, creating the first-ever Women’s Business Enterprise (WBE) Certification for Ohio. In fact, at a public meeting in December 2018, she publicly asked Governor John Kasich if he would sign the bill that was on his desk when he returned, and he did! Merry is willing to go above and beyond to leverage her status as a successful business owner, while leveraging her social capital to advance the policy agenda of NAWBO Columbus. She is the model of what it means to be an active NAWBO member.
