This Year’s 100

The annual WilmingtonBiz 100 recognizes the top 100 Power Players, Influencers, Innovators, Connectors, and Rising Stars impacting Southeastern North Carolina’s business landscape.

This list, compiled by WILMA’s sister publication Greater Wilmington Business Journal, this year includes downtown Wilmington advocates, network connectors, affordable housing experts, CEOs, health executives, and others. It focuses heavily on work that members have done this year to impact the region.

For example, VELVA JENKINS, president and CEO of the YWCA of the Lower Cape Fear and named to the Connector category, this year helped launch the Women’s Worth Alliance in Pender County with the Greater Topsail Area Chamber of Commerce & Tourism to empower women about finances and investing.

To learn more about the other members of this year’s list and why they were selected go to WilmingtonBiz100.com and pick up the December issue of WilmingtonBiz Magazine.
