The WilmingtonBiz 100 is an annual Greater Wilmington Business Journal initiative to recognize the top 100 Power Players, Influencers, Innovators, Connectors and Rising Stars impacting Southeastern North Carolina’s business landscape.
Readers sent in names to consider during a nomination process, and the Business Journal’s editorial team selected the WilmingtonBiz 100. We’ll do nominations again next year for the annual issue.
To be considered, individuals had to either work or live in the region. Elected officials aren’t considered for the list.
Those included in this year’s group were announced in October, but on the following pages you can read a little more about why they were picked.
This year, some of the list members’ profiles were produced using an artificial intelligence program and supported by honoree questionnaires. Each profile was reviewed, augmented by original reporting and writing, fact-checked and edited for accuracy by the Business Journal editorial staff.
