Leading Maryland Entrepreneur Gloria Larkin Inducted Into Circle of Excellence with Third Top 100 Women Award

Baltimore, MD. March 26, 2010 - Gloria Larkin, President and founder of TargetGov, a prospering national marketing company focused on the federal contracting market, recently received her third Maryland’s Top 100 Women Award from The Daily Record. This third honor affords her the distinction of being named to The Daily Record’s Circle of Excellence; she is one of only fifteen women in Maryland to be inducted into the Circle of Excellence in 2010.

The Daily Record, a Maryland-based newspaper, annually recognizes 100 high-achieving Maryland women as demonstrated through their professional accomplishment, community leadership and mentoring. The newspaper initiated the award in 1996.

Larkin, who previously won the award in 2004 and 2007, has built TargetGov’s reputation in recent years by working tirelessly to ensure that her clients understand what it takes to be successful in government contracting. Through teleseminars, many provided free of charge, personal consultations, and numerous speaking engagements, Gloria has helped businesses nationwide become acquainted with the government contracting market and procure many large-scale government contracts.

“TargetGov was created as a niche expert consultant service addressing the federal market’s quirks and requirements. The best proof of our effectiveness is our clients’ success,” said Larkin.

While operating TargetGov, Larkin also advocates for business women nationwide, serving as the national Procurement Committee Co-Chair for Women Impacting Public Policy (WIPP). Larkin comments, “I became involved in WIPP because of the non-partisan process—WIPP looks out for member’s best interests, not endorsing or following a party-mandated route. I found that refreshing and ultimately, better for business.”

A special ceremony will take place on Monday, May 3rd, 2010 at the Meyerhoff Symphony Hall in Baltimore to honor this year’s award recipients.
