2020 Women of Influence

Nora Napientek, founder of Nora Fleming, was recognized earlier this year during BridgeTower Media’s 2020 Women of Influence. The event, this year held virtually, highlighted leaders in the Gift and Home Industry with strategic vision and entrepreneurial talents.

“There are many more women-owned companies in our industry compared to others, and we have found the value in networking – to share with each other, help life each other and to celebrate one another.”, Napientek, said in an interview with Gifts & Decorative Accessories.  

Nora Fleming started back in 2004 at Nora’s pottery shop outside Chicago, Illinois. Nora was inspired to create a neutral platter and colorful minis that interchanged through all of life’s seasons and occasions.

Nora Fleming is also recognized within the industry for creating strong charity partnerships. In 2018 the brand launched a limited collection series of minis to benefit St. Jude. The series has raised more than $150,000 to support patients and families! at St. Jude. Gift a gift that makes a difference!
